All of this DNA business totally goes over my head, but I have gleaned from the below information that the George and Isaac I was researching is NOT the below line. However, I have come to believe that my line is not exactly attached to the George I was researching because even though they both were in NC and emigrated to TN during congruent time frames, I've not found a single connection. Here are the details. My cousin Gale Shelton Newton shared his DNA with the project. His father is Gale Shelton Newton b. 1907 Kansas d. 1990 Arizona Grandfather was Robert Henry Newton b. 1884 Kansas d. 1964 Kansas Gr Grandfather was Periander Carlton Newton b. 1842 TN d. 1903 Kansas Gr Gr Grandfather was Robert Henry Newton b. 1818 NC d. after 1885 Kansas This is what I know for sure. After Gale's DNA sample came back we discovered DNA connected us to a VA Newton family, and the researcher there was going on the assumption that the connection must be through one or her gr gr gr uncles, a George Newton. The researcher had traced her Newtons thus: Living Newton (he was their DNA donor and does not want to be named) His father was Raymond Elwood Newton b. 1942 SC Grandfather was Raymond Blanks Newton b 1907 NC d 1977 VA Gr Grandfather was Henry Bailey Newton b. 1884 VA d 1943 VA Gr Gr Grandfather was William Henry Newton b. 1854 VA d. 1909 VA This is as far as the researcher was sure of. I went further and am fairly certain of the following: William Henry Newton's father was Henry James Newton b. 1824 VA d 1908 VA His father was William Newton b 1800 VA d before 1870 VA Grandfather was Robert Newton b. 1760 VA d 1813 VA Gr Grandfather was probably Henry Newton (the fourth) b. 1738 d unknown This is where it becomes fuzzy. The dates do not match anywhich way I try them, but they all lived in Lundsburg and Mecklenburg Counties, VA At some point brothers Robert, George and another Henry appear in a will being given three neighboring plots of land in Mecklenburg Co., VA. George (of these three) appears to have sold his land and moved to Orange Co., NC I traced his line down through his children who all emigrated to TN (where my Robert Henry Newton & wife had their first child, Periander) However, after chasing all of George's children and grandchildren (all of the ones I could find) NONE appears to have had a son who could have been my Robert Henry Newton. Hence, I am looking for another DNA link that would suggest who my Robert Henry Newton's parents were.
