In Salt Lake City I found a cemetery listing of Pike Co,IN Washington twp graves with a lot of Blackburns. no dates. I also have the History of Pile Co,IN 1987 with no listing for Blackburn or French but there is a Vinson France family who came to IN before the Civil War, settling a mile north of Scottsburg. Vinson married Lucy Slater, 8 children: Wm,Thomas,Nancy Ellenm reed,Martha Jane m. Arnold,Enos,Vinson,Walker,and Lucy m Le Masters.Let me know if any of these names click. Linda
DNA French Testees, please identify yourself . . .
Every testee needs to go on their DNA web page by logging in with their kit number and password here: https://www.familytreedna.com/ Then look under Y-DNA and click on "Matches" Then under "My Account", click on "User Preferences" At the bottom of that page, you will see a box for "Paternal Side" Please enter a short description of your line there. It will immediately appear on this website: http://www.familytreedna.com/public/french/default.aspx?section=yresults
Only then can we learn more about your ancestry and help you find a connection.
Several DNA tests match each other and are grouped together as DNA Test Group 4. The only definite thing that DNA can show is that all the males in Group 4 are related i.e., descended from a common male ancestor. The testee of FFA Chart #23 had 12 at DYS607 as do the testees of FFA Charts #186, #31, and #193 which may be more closely related to each other than the other four who have a 13 at that marker. The testee of FFA Chart #23 is the only one who has a 15 in DYS437, whereas all others have a 16. FFA Chart #23 is one mutation off from FFA Chart #194 in DYS511. Also, FFA Chart #23 is one mutation off from FFA Charts #10 and #136 at DYS389II. Therefore, the closest matching tests to FFA Chart #23 are FFA Charts #186, #31, and #193. It might be profitable to research the ancestry of these 4 charts in Kentucky to find a possible connection.
We note that Isaac French is most closely connected thru DNA with FFA Charts #186, #31, and #193. Reviewing FFA Chart #31, Henry and Elizabeth (Ersom) French, we note that they had a daughter named Polly or Mary French who was born 1 Dec 1776 in Mercer Co., KY. She “may” have traveled to Detroit with Isaac ca. 1792 and then returned to Kentucky by 1800 when she married John Godhart Smick / Smock. Another indication of this situation could be the fact that she, Mary Smick/Smock, named a son Isaac. We note that in FFA Chart #186, Philip French named a son Isaac. Philip French was born on 3 Mar 1790 in Kentucky, the same year that Peter French was born, Isaac’s son.

ReplyDeleteHi All, I think I have my settings incorrect on Google, because this "Unknown" emailing is me, Mara French. I will try to correct that situation.
