    3. Aint got a clue what you are on about gb ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gregg Bonner" <greggbonner@yahoo.com> To: <newton@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, May 14, 2009 2:18 AM Subject: Re: [NEWTON] Gregg / mtDNA? Can Women Trace Their Line? Hi Barb, First let me say that there are a LOT of different kinds of DNA tests, and if you had a lot of cousins (etc.) willing to provide samples, there are all kinds of things you might be able to find out...presuming also that money is no barrier. But I am only familiar with Y-chromosome and mtDNA testing for genealogy. The mtDNA traces the purely maternal line, so it is more or less the female equivalent of Y-chromosome testing as far as genealogy goes, with the important difference that men also have mtDNA, so they can be mtDNA tested as well. To address your specific case, I'll just mention what I call 'tantamount DNA proof'. Let's say that you think Easter Hazel Newton is your mother's mother's (etc.) mother, but are not sure, and want to use mtDNA to prove it. Now, if Sarah Jane Bettis had another daughter, who had a daughter (etc.), and you got her to test mtDNA, and you matched, then this would more or less prove that you descend from Sarah Jane Bettis. But this would never tie you by DNA to the NEWTON male line. You would always have to RELY on it being the case that the Sarah Jane Bettis's daughters were all fathered by John William Newton as a matter of course due to marriage, etc. So you see, Y-chromosome is very good for purely paternal descents, and mtDNA is good for purely maternal descents, but neither are good for descents which are a mixture of paternal and maternal (i.e., your mom's dad's mom's dad, etc.). For cases of mixed descent, you really need to have cousins test for you, whether through mtDNA or Y-chromosome. Generally speaking, for each diversion in path from purely maternal or purely paternal, you will need another pair of DNA tests (one to represent your line "experimental", and one from a bona fide descendant "control"). This can get expensive depending on how many generations back it is, and how many times the path changes. The good news on that is that there's a descent chance a lot of these people have ALREADY been tested. After all, just in the DNA testing company I prefer, they have 140,000+ Y-chromsome tests already completed.

I have a meeting at the Oklahoma Station BBQ this Tuesday night and will be getting the necessry signatures to send in to National for approval. I am sending them a copy of your letter. This should seal it. Have been in touch with Michael Duff Newton, who descends from James and was a member of the SAR. I have all my lineage proven to John E. Newton and am using material from a researcher, Mr. Mack Tucker, who Michael knew from the 1960's. All of my material can be used by others who descend from the Peter Newtons, son and father.

    3. Hi Listers, Sorry, but I have made a terrible typographical error in my prior message which I would like to correct. I mentioned the agreement between samples as being like 'Node "S"' in the first part of the message. Then I suggested (in error) that the litmus test for paternal descent from Peter Newton is matching 'Node "R"'. I meant to say instead 'Node "S"', I just inexplicably typed the wrong letter. Sorry for any confusion that may have caused. Lest there be any remaining, here is the concordance of Nodes "R" and "S", with number of samples from each. R 1 NEWTON, Andrew Born: 26 Jan 1781, Hartford, Windsor County, Connecticut. R 1 NEWTON, Rufus Born: 18 Jul 1775, Milford, Connecticut.

    3. Hi Listers, This update to the NEWTON Surname DNA Project extends the commentary presented in Volume 37: http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/newton/2007-06/1181017749 Our prior 2 DNA samples whose providers claimed descent from the Peter Newton of Caroline County, Virginia (c.1755-1823), who died in Bullitt County, Kentucky shared another two generations of common descent. Thus their agreeing DNA values demonstrated only evidence that the claimed descents were correct up to the grandson of said Peter Newton, namely, one John E. Newton who died in 1881 in Dubois County, Indiana. We now have another sample whose provider claims descent from said Peter Newton, but sharing no further ancestral descent from him with the prior 2 project participants. We now have samples from a descendant of Peter Newton's son Peter Newton (m. Hannah Waddle) and a sample from a descendant of Peter Newton's son James Newton (m. Margaret King). This new sample agrees with the prior Node "S" samples. Thus the DNA now substantiates the entire line to Peter Newton himself. This essentially removes any doubt that may have lingered about the first two generations descended from the original Peter Newton. We now have a litmus test for purely paternal descent from Peter Newton of Caroline County, Virginia. Any man who suspects this descent should match Node "R" or come very nearly so. The Project will continue in efforts to find the progenitors of Peter Newton, and all the other Newtons.

    3. Yes Andrew Jackson is the president who sent our Native American cousins on that famous "Trail of Tears". So many of our Cherokee kin died because of what President Jackson did. This happened even though Cherokee Chief John Ross saved Jackson's life in that previous war. David S.

OH/Erie/Newton (Dorene Paul) 2. Re: OH/Erie/Newton (Linda Higgins) This blog entry from the Archives of the Sandusky Library discusses Daniel Newton and his wife, Eunice Clemons Newton, and their invitation to the Jackson Victory Ball in 1827: http://sanduskyhistory.blogspot.com/search?q=victory+ball I think this "Victory Ball" was probably a political event to promote Jackson's run for presidency. He won in 1828 and was inaugurated in 1829. I'm sure, however, that his Ohio supporters were depending on his victory as the military commander in the battle of New Orleans which actually took place in 1814, but was a part of the war of 1812. I am reading a book, American Lion, by Jon Meachem about Andrew Jackson's White House Years. It is very interesting. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about Andrew Jackson. Thanks for the web site reference. Linda J.
