Hello to all, wishing all a safe holiday this Memorial Day weekend.
This is a reply to Sarah Atkins.
Remember I said DNA is a fickle thing.
Well amongst all geneasists, DNA is only inherited from a persons 5th great. So most only inherit from their 5th great grandparents. Sarah, you’ve tested a 6th great from Charity that’s why you have these type of results.
Now that being said, 99.99% will only inherit from their 5th great, but like everything else in life there is also a 00.01% anomaly where a 6th great can inherit further back although it is extremely rare.
DNA must be done on individuals no more than 5 generations out from the person you are trying to link to.
What we need is a 5th descendant from Littleberry Adkins and compare those to another 5th descendant from say Chloe Etta Adkins line ( my sons line) that’s why we are having Larry Clark tested, he being a 5th and my sons father.
Comparisons between these two lines would be definitive as to the Native issue at hand.
It was a good try Sarah Atkins, but just not close enough to be able to pick up any Native DNA.
I wish you all well.
