I am not familiar with just how the Mayflower Society uses DNA information in conjunction with a paper trail. I do think it is exciting that it has happened. The names you mention are very interesting to me. Have you seen the rootsweb post regarding "parentage of Caleb Howland"? The genealogy described there is very complicated. I would be interested in knowing what the family tree looks like in the final analysis. Perhaps DNA testing will help with that, if enough descendants test.California Researcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140101696674277676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836005419368547192.post-82316420404950139372013-04-16T14:45:12.345-07:002013-04-16T14:45:12.345-07:00Dear Susan:

Where we run into the question is Samuel Howland of Scituate Rhode Island. The whole issue in my case has to do with the parentage of Caleb Howland of Clarendon, VT son of Samuel. They have been a couple of papers and theories written on this. As I understand it the Mayflower Society through 5 generations of John Howland find no son Samuel attributed to Josiah Howland and Yetmercy Shove. However they do note that some secondary sources do, assign a son Samuel to these parents. However as noted on page 41 and 42 of the Mayflower book John Howland of the Mayflower the NYGBR 42:405 and Howland Gen (1885) add children Elizabeth, John, Samuel and Patience with no birth dates. The society has accepted members through a purported son Samuel based on NEHGR 130:301 article<br />MY QUESTION IS WOULD DNA TEST DO ANYTHING TO ASSIST IN IDENTIYING THE RIGHT HOWLAND? <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04009506295245829165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836005419368547192.post-77258337428458353042012-10-03T06:14:54.937-07:002012-10-03T06:14:54.937-07:00I was really excited when I found the link to Find...I was really excited when I found the link to Find a Grave on Ancestry.

My mother who is now almost 80 has told us stories about how her father, Sullivan, now deceased, would refer to his ex-mother in law as the squaw-it was a nasty divorce, so it was not in a positive manner. However, as the story goes, my great grandmother was a Native American/Iroquois Nation-who married a white Canadian trapper named Smith. When he died, she remarried and her new husband, a widower, Baker, did not want her three daughters, as he had three sons of his own. My grandmother and her two sisters were sent to an orphanage. Somewhere along the way, they all ended up in the Boston area. At 15 my grandmother married my 26 year old grandfather and had my mother.<br />Any Native American trace was lost along the way. I have found myself interested in the N.A. culture my whole life and have supported N.A. charities since I was in my 20's; I am now in my 50's. My sister did her student teaching on a reservation in upstate NY many years ago. So much of history is lost along the way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836005419368547192.post-13547421056390324522011-08-21T15:35:09.436-07:002011-08-21T15:35:09.436-07:00We had a great grandfather that was the suspected ...We had a great grandfather that was the suspected father of a child. y- DNA testing confirmed their theory.<br />Regards,<br />Theresa (Tangled Trees)TCasteelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01261694755025450452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836005419368547192.post-69771287790528655442011-08-20T15:06:18.424-07:002011-08-20T15:06:18.424-07:00Love your Blog great infoLove your Blog great infoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836005419368547192.post-29639135565788269692011-08-14T07:26:37.985-07:002011-08-14T07:26:37.985-07:00Thanks for the link!
