477.Emma Ona [RUSH] ELLIOTT) [9] [261. Aaron 8, Benjamin 7, James 6,
Benjamin II 5, Wm. IV 4, Wm. III 3, Wm. II 2, Wm. I 1] born 17 Nov 1867 in
Rice Twp, Ringgold Co, IA, and died in Mt Ayr, IA, 1 Aug 1963. She married 10
Jul 1887 in the Methodist parsonage in Mt Ayr to Alamando Wilcox ELLIOTT
born 11 May 1865 in Avon, Fulton Co, IL. His parents were Rev. Sherburn
Alamando and Louisa Marie [Mark] ELLIOTT. `Al’ came to Iowa at the age of
three. His father was a pioneer Methodist circuit rider in southeast Iowa and
family moved frequently until moving to Rice Twp in 1871 to farm. His
grandfather, Rev. William F. Mark, was also a pioneer Methodist circuit rider
also serving in Illinois and Iowa with his last charge in Redding, Ringgold Co, IA.
After marriage, Emma and `Al’ settled on farm purchased in 1890 from his
father in Rice Twp where they lived until they moved to Mt Ayr in 1915. They
purchased in 1907 an additional 40 acres on the west side of this initial 80 acre
farm. This farm was rented to their oldest son, Mark, in 1915 and they retired
to Mt Ayr. They sold this farm in 1934 to this son. Their home in Mt. Ayr was
located at the present site if the Clearview Care Home for senior citizens.
Emma was the first resident of this fine center. They were active members of
the Methodist Church, having joined at Eureka east of Delphos, IA. `Al’ at five
feet eleven inches towered over his five-foot three-inch father. He detested the
name `Alamando’ and much preferred his friends to call him `Al’ or `A.W.’ He is
remembered for his fine sense of humor and cheerful disposition, always seeing
the bright side of everything. He enjoyed quoting poetry – generally ending by
giving credit to an author that may or may not have existed. He chewed
tobacco, always ‘saucered’ his coffee, and said `grace’ before every meal. The
`carom board’ was always readily available when the grandchildren arrived for
overnight stays. Alice, felt she gave these for nothing. The railroad
bordered the north edge of their lots with a trestle bridge crossing the street
bordering them on the east. They owned one automobile purchased new – a
1928 Whippet. Emma did the driving as `Al’s eyesight was very poor, having
lost an eye at the age of nine when a boyhood friend accidentally struck him
with an axe while watching him chop wood. Their house had a well located in
the east porch and a cave just east between house and garage. East of the
garage was the commonly referred to `two holer’ with that adjacent to a low
ceiling hen house with both covered with grape vines. They kept about a dozen
Rhode Island Red hens that produced very few eggs. She always had a jar full
of thick sugar cookies that really weren’t very good but she was a tremendous
grandma! They both enjoyed gardening and had many peach trees. Children of
Emma and `Al’;

Noted, share Y-DNA first 12 markers with Cave ‘de Cave’, and Scarborough. The Bruce had land of Cave, North and South, in east Riding Yorkshire, and in Annandale, land also of the Nicholas Stuteville (Nicholforest), and Wake families. The Stuteville had land of Gresham Castle, and Scarborough region, also of The Mote, which had Liddel Strength Castle on it of the Wake and Stuteville.

To see larger view click the right button then ‘Open image in new tab’. Mark Elliott All administrators have the right to access this project with free speech. If there were no administrators, and only Maurice Anderson, as co-Administrator, because the co-Administrator, can not dismiss people from this blog, everyone, like in the Family History Library, in Salt Lake City, Utah, would do a free sharing of speech and materials, and online is utilized to find family. Being a second generation genealogist, and dad had a high reputation for accuracy, in order from me to circumvent, FTDNA blogs like of Border Reivers, Elliot(t), Scotland, Germany, Denmark, East Anglia, which my family is a part of I have to load others down, so those which are true searches of family history material are able to find it, because of family censorship, of “in-laws” and their family histories not being shared on their respective blogs, the way to supersede it is to load down the blogs with images, and utilize information on these blogs to apply it to ones own domains, so people can find this information being suppressed by FTDNA administration censorship then incorporate it into their respective family histories. Example, Yorkshire has not administrators, and a co-administrator, if that were true for Germany, Denmark, East Anglia, Border Reivers, and Scotland, I would be still in those particular blogs. Do not know though about Elliot, because of the amount of information which I hold. The co-administrators, need to share their valuable family and genetic information with people, on the contingency that they are an in-law to people in the group and not be allowed to usurp free of speech on family history, no manner the level of knowledge which is coming from that individual, whether it is extremely high or low, and do not get to choose who enters the group. If the individual determines that is when the most family history gets found. People have families and utilized these blogs to find a shared knowledge from among their families, and if one disagrees do they get kicked out of the family, but they are getting kicked off FTDNA blogs, which deteriorates the accuracy obtained through family sharing of the information. Y-DNA can be made into a great tool for families sharing their research, has to be taken for the administrative academics which are trying with distorted stats to utilize people as ‘lab rats’, and put into the hands of the people which paid for the information. Noted; Yorkshire which puts out images pertaining to family history, has no administrators to police people, just a co-Administrator, Marice Anderson, and those people in the blog have a strong knowledge of genealogy. The co-admin, of the FTDNA Argyll Colony North Carolina blog; https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/argyll-colony-north-carolina/about Tries to get the group to riot, but has not been very successful at it.

Joseph Anderson, To I myself one who has been doing genealogy for over a half century, will share information with anyone, because that is the way top ancestral findings are made, and this is an example; Had to share this with someone, but this is one of the craziest pieces of genealogy, I have ever came across. Met this guy Lucio Gomes in different FTDNA blogs. Live with native peoples around my hometown of Gallup, New Mexico. Could tell Lucio Gomes, where Gomes is a Portuguese surname, and he looks Native American to me. Forenames Lecio and Xmenez are Brazilian names so they are from Brazil, but it seems like people are referring to this population of Native Americans as being from the United States which they are not. The Y-DNA did travel through today’s US to Brazil, and feel this is making the confusion and why people are referring to these people as US Native Americans. Lucio speaks Portuguese, and one time he forgot to utilize the Portuguese to English translator, so it came out in the blog ending to be English as Portuguese. He was on the Dunbar site, but Cockburn is the family he is from share similar Y-DNA. He kept asking me questions and we seem to work things out. Though both of our families fought in the Cromwellian Civil against Cromwell, his fought at The Battle of Dunbar, and likely was transported on to Barbados then Brazil. Mine fought in The Battle of Worcester and ended up with the Puritans in Massachusetts. Working together we came up with this graphic on the Dunbar-Cockburn Y-DNA, which it seems people are showing a lot of interest in; https://gorrenberry.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Dunbar.jpg The graphic I thought it was are reconstruction of Lucio, but it is; Robert the Bruce Facial reconstruction•Oct 31, 2018 as found on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llSn-bTRNCo He I feel does not speak English, and feel that we can not communicate in the spoken language, but with translation of the written language we were able to communicate.

Mark . . . . I hope that you realize that R1b, R-M269, is the most common haplogroup in Western British and the British Isles and that “accidental” matches are quite common. By accidental, I mean lacking a common ancestor in recorded history. I’m still hoping that you can explain how you may be related to others in the Anderson DNA group. Otherwise, it seems to me that you are flooding this forum with information that is irrelevant to most of us.

A lot of people match markers, when they match surnames odds of being related more generations you go back. When you match strongly your migration patterns odds increase. Most DNA people only look at matches when DNA is only one of many tools in the genealogists tool box. Since name origins of Ander to son goes back to Germany of my Proto-Germanic R-U106, and Elwald/Ewald surname and we are still strong in County Fermanagh, Ulster, Ireland migrating as Border Reiver from the English-Scottish Borderlands, if DNA is a tool in finding relatives then I am related to the Anderson.

If borderers do not realize what happen, they will not be able to migrate their families from the English-Scottish Border to the Ulster Plantation. Many Y-DNA gread Dand alias of Andrew became Daniel from the McDaniel County Fermanagh, Ulster, Ireland was banished from both kingdoms in 1607. Ended up in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tullykelter_Castle where Elliott are living today, by 1610. This happened to many of the border people which survived border pacification, and yes the Anderson are included. The big problem is people will not read given information, and will refuse to and go out of their way not to. These are not family historians genealogists, they are people which feed into the concept of no border genocide therefore being highly destructive for family finding by people which have border ancestry. They are the types which would say ‘that is a lie’ that the Glendenning from Mt. Ayr, IA, USA are from Glendenning, Scotland. Anyone which would even utilize the word ‘lie’ in family history research is not a genealogist though they may claim to be.

Maurice Anderson, Paid money for data, and to use that data to do extend my family history. No one can do family history unless all are allowed to speak freely. FTDNA has kicked me off several blogs. That is not allowing for my free speech. It does not do me any good if eventually I develop this free speech if I am the only one not allowed to be kicked out of blogs. Do not have free speech on many blogs that is why I circumvent on other blogs. It is part of my most conservative believes as soon as my family came from the UK, to me they have the Union-Jack and laugh people as Royalists fighting in the Battle of Dunbar being ‘transported as slaves to the colonies’; https://gorrenberry.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/SELLING-SCOTS-AS-SLAVES-IS-FUNNY-TO-THE-TORIES-2.mp4?_=1 Mine were transported to the Colony of Massachusetts.

One can not steer away from ones own beliefs, to do family history-genealogy, because those beliefs, with me in my conservatism Mar 28, 1692 of my many verified by Y-DNA great is people get to speak freely when doing family history. The Constitution of my nation was written in Philadelphia, a town first settled by William Penn and his people, what would happen to freedom of speech and religion in the American Constitution if William Penn and his people were as Cotton Mather a Puritan a supporter of Cromwell would have done. It is those Harvard Puritanical ideologies in Boston which hung witches and Quakers for their expression of speaking freely and Mary Dyer a Quaker in Boston for her religious freedoms. Though the Latter Day Saints and the Jews, and of tribes of Israel are of the chosen people, been utilizing the services because of the beliefs of a tribe of Israel, which came to America, and offers what they call baptism to their ancestors. Always in the utilization at first the largest data base pre-web, never in a half century was I ever censored from utilizing materials in their library which many are being made available online, nor do people which I share (genealogy-family history is sharing not dictating), family history with shares their, and this is how people naturally do it. To constrain it by people that are these Harvard Puritan types, does not allow the free flow of family history among people, and any FTDNA which has administrators which constrain this free flow is not a genealogical family history site. There are some blog with do not have administrators, and just co-administrators which can not dismiss people for what they say about these families. These blogs which just have co-administrators, and no administrator, are genealogical family history blogs of FTDNA. Unless all have the right to speak freely as in the Family History Library, Salt Lake City, Utah, on the FTDNA blogs, accurate family history can not be truly found with FTDNA which follows a corporate structure to silence people to try to maximize their profits.

Joseph Anderson 3 hours ago “Mark………………I didn’t take time to read all of this, much less follow all the links. I’m hoping that you can explain to me briefly how all or any of this applies to us Anderson.” Anderson are border reivers like the Elliott, near Hawick, name etched as reivers on a floor in Carlisle, and with my family of the Hume estate near the Hamilton estate Magheraboy, County Fermanagh, Ulster, Ireland. Even related to a Swede, which likely goes back many generations into Northern Germany-Denmark, with spelling ‘Andersson’. What ever happens to borderers such as the Armstrong happened to all. The border pacification which took place early 17th century, when James VI of Scotland became James I of England if not exiled and moved to Ulster used the English army to exterminate borderers, for the making of the Middle Shires. https://gorrenberry.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Anderson-Ulster-muster-1630.jpg Without this knowledge base of moment from the Scottish Border to Ulster then onto America, many American Anderson’s will not be able to find family in the UK. Because of the UK flying the Union-Jack the flag of border genocide, they will if of these people censor this information out. It is like Hitler winning WWII, then someone on an FTDNA blog tries to get the history to correlated with the DNA. People of course want to live this genocidal status quo live with keeping the genocide of the jews silent, but in this case it is the Anderson and Elliott, and I want to string up Tories like my ancestors did; http://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2006691561/ Americans need to understand, the movement from Scotland to Ulster Ireland was exile or be killed for the making of a Middle Shires. The the Union-Jack is a flag of genocide to border people, like the Swastika is to the Jews. It was the king of Scotland in charged of an English army which did the killing. Am an American an not of either kingdom especially Scotland the side of the border my family lived on. Am a borderer of a self governing nation between two kingdoms, and ancestors made a self governing nation in America. Know that this blog may not allow for free speech which is foreign to the nation in which I live, and their may be some people from other nations which do not believe in free speech as admins, but to get genealogy family history accurate then speech needs to be free.

By: Pam Gibbens http://www.boone-dna.com/FTDNA.htm Greater Houston Weekly / Houston Chronicle April, 2006 Houston-Based Firm is the Largest Genealogical DNA Testing Company In the World More than 80 million people are Actively engaged in it. Numerous websites are inundated with hits from researchers. It’s the second largest and most popular hobby in the United State. What is it? “It” is genealogy, the study of one’s own history and heritage. The pursuit of the past inspires those interested in genealogy to unearth information about long lost relatives and their ancestral homes. While digging around, a few skeletons are sometimes found in the dark recesses of the family closet. Years ago, the duty of record keeping was usually left up to a family member who would scour the libraries and comb through records at the county courthouse to uncover tidbits of lives once lived. Kindly “Aunt Jane” would examine handwritten personal diaries, certificates of marriage and birth and death notices. Like solving a jigsaw puzzle, the process was tedious and time-consuming. Discerning delicious details about distant kin was both fascinating and frustrating. More often than not, a simmering paper trail would eventually grow cold. Today, genealogists and rank amateurs are discovering that their own family trees, with deep roots and expansive canopies of branches, twigs and leaves, are much more complex than they ever imagined. Thanks to the internet and the innovation of two Houston entrepreneurs, you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to be a genealogist. . . . . https://elwald.com/brigham-this-is-the-place-genealogy-with-dna-applied/

Do not know as excellent genealogists know, graphics in Google images, of names such as FTDNA Hammer, FTDNA Behar, FTDNA Estes, and FTDNA Riddell. The above is a pretty popular graphic. Test piloting your genealogical search knowledge base to see if you can be dependent on. Also testing your knowledge, on information to your customers to see if it can be relied upon. Such as multiple exact matches at time of surname adoption. Like that of Grisham with a Castle at time. Could have a name like Irvan de Grissom, meaning Irvan of Grissom castle, becoming Irvan Grissom, or even Gus Grissom of Mitchell, Indiana which gave his life for the space program in Houston. Your math has something to be desire.

How family members are being successful at family history; 1. The family knows best. Those which do not realize ‘The Family Knows Best’, and circumvent the family, makes a huge amount of difficulties by causing the true genealogists to correct the information back to what the family first said. 2. Listen to others, especially of the opposite sex, to make family. Though you may not think that which is coming from the opposite sex correct, the answers to what you said is reflective one and can with little skill decipher from the language, needed family information. 3. Do not in a family search, get rid of the in-laws, though you may want to. FTDNA is not a genealogical site because they are allowing administrators to kick out the in-laws. 4. Families fight, and likely not just one answer is correct, in the history. Families in their research seem to aim their research into specific region of research, giving to each other in the same family answers seemly conflicting, but so close they both come out as being correct. 5. If the family’s history is done properly one does not get to pick their ancestors. Self explanatory.

I don’t know if anyone else will find this helpful, but I’ll throw it out there just in case. I have done Family Finder on myself, and Full MtDNA , on Family Finder I have almost 7500 matches. On there I have some matches I know and some I don’t, but where matches that have family trees posted, I look at those and see if I can find anyone in common. Some times it takes a little bit of work, but I have been able to link some known matches to my tree, but also I found some that previously weren’t known to me and I was able to find the common ancestor to both of us and link that person to my tree. I was contacted by someone that was a close match to me but I wasn’t familiar with their last name or any of their surnames, but with some research I was able to look back and locate a common ancestor on my Bonner line which is my Father’s line. My Dad passed away back in 1963 and I have one sibling, a sister. My Dad had two sisters and one brother, one sister had no children, never married, the other sister had one child, not a Bonner. His brother had 4 children, two girls and two boys. That brother left home as a teenager and lived in Rhode Island, I never meet them, I’m in the process of attempting to find any male heirs from those two sons. Since I didn’t have anybody on my Father’s line, those 7500 matches on Family Finder only had maternal matches from the cousins I knew and had linked to my tree after some research. After I was able to add the woman who descended from my Bonner line, to my tree, suddenly I had 280 people that showed up on my paternal side. My Dad’s Mother was a Kinney so I found another close match that our common ancestor was on the Kinney family and I added several 100 more paternal matches after I linked the person that matched me to my tree. I don’t have any yet that match both my maternal and paternal lines, but I’ll work on it. It’s a small victory, but it certainly makes those 7500 matches not so daunting. My Bonner line is pretty well researched, so it is easier than my Price and Anderson lines, those are very difficult.

Elizabeth Rye – It looks like I may be your Anderson connection on this site. My 3G grandparents were John Anderson and Martha Price Anderson. They were born in Indian Territory in what is now Middle Tennessee along the Columbia River just east of Nashville in Sumner County in the early 1780’s. Many early settlers were killed by Indian attacks at that time. Some how they survived those terrible times on the frontier. They later moved east to Jackson County, TN on Martins Creek until about 1819 when they moved again to Paint Rock Valley in Jackson County, AL. A widowed lady named Sarah Price who was Martha’s sister in law came to Paint Rock, AL at the same time also. She had three sons named John, Robert, and David Price. John later moved to Pope CO, AR. Robert and David stayed in AL. John named one of his sons Michael. There was also a family connection to a Michael Price that settled in Mississippi. Does any of this sound familiar? I communicated with a Janice Price Linderman (now deceased) from Russeville, AR for several years working on our Anderson/Price connection. Did you by any chance know her? She was a wonderful lady and accomplished Price researcher. She provided a series of letters her family preserved from the 1840’s between Sarah in AL and her son John in AR that provides a wealth of Anderson/Price history. I have completed all the DNA testing offered by FTDNA. From that I have been able to determine that this Anderson line originated in Scotland and that we are closely related (exact match) to the Seton/Gordon family line that was the highest of Norman nobility in medieval times. I would like to correspond very much to compare our data and sources, so let me know if you are interested. Several other Anderson families settled in the area a few years later which greatly complicates sorting it all out. Hopefully we might be able to push down some additional brick walls. You can reach me at anderson.jm.444@gmail.com

Yes James, this is all familiar and those are my Prices. There were five of us that matched back in 2007 when we first started tested YDNA, we are all in the Price Project in what at the time we called the Teal Group. Gordon Price who lived in the St Louis MO area was a descendant of Joseph Price and Rebecca Heygood, Heywood. Janis Lindemann, was from the line of John Price and Elizabeth Gibson, Rex Huha, whose Mother was a Price, had her brother, David Price (now deceased) test for his line, We also have Paul Price from California, who tested for us and his a match, his oldest proven ancestor is Michael Price that married Prudence Anderson. Paul thinks we descend from the Mordecai Price line, but I don’t think we do, I have tested Price men that I can track to that line and they don’t match us. Janis Lindeman’s brother tested for her and I manage his kit along with some other. We all have copies of the old letters, we just can’t find our common ancestor that connects us, I am very interested in corresponding with you about your Anderson line and maybe figuring out how my Mary Anderson and Prudence Anderson connect to your line. My email is hamnrye@hotmail.com, and you can communicate with me there. I am very willing to work with you on the Anderson/Price connections.

Robert Carruth, My kit is #475860 and the results are in I Group 1 of the DNA Results for this group. I have taken the Big Y 700 and uploaded those results to YFull. The professional interpretation from both those results is my line is from Sweden. I have also been connected to Anders Joransson and his Anderson family of the New Sweden Colony. My challenge is separating Anderson’s in the colonial frontier of Virginia. I have several Scots and Scots-Irish Anderson lines migrating into and thru S.W. Virginia and into the Carolinas at the same time as my line. Some are the descendants of Rev. James Anderson. We also share similar migration pathways as the Blockhouse Anderson line, the line of George Anderson who settled in Bedford County, the Dutch Anderson/Opdyke line that settled in North Carolina, and a James Anderson/Nuckolls line that settled in Grayson County. So far my research has proven who we aren’t. I have been focusing on Lunenburg and Bedford County before and during the French and Indian War with some success. If you ever find someone with the Y-DNA of Rev. James Anderson please share and thank you for responding.

https://forebears.io/surnames/carruth Note; Do not find genealogy done any better. These guys are hitting the numbers; Robert Anderson and Robert Carruth ‘Anderson of Donegal Presbyterian’ ‘ Anderson was one of my 7th Great Grandfathers,’ Both the families highly likely County Donegal Presbyterian. With the name ‘Carruth’, about halfway between two names I have been researching ‘Carr’, and ‘Carruthers’ and would like to know if Robert Carruth has any Y-DNA matching with either name.

Although I had posted below about my Anderson genetic connections in my yDNA, as far as I know, it is not connected to the Rev James Anderson – he is in my paternal grandmother’s line. BUT, his daughter married Robert Taylor, of Rutherford County, NC. He lived within 30 miles of where my 5th great-grandfather Robert Carruth lived, so I am not ruling out a yDNA connection to one of his sons.

Robert Carruth has a question!February 18 @ 7:07pm
“A long held family mystery in my paternal line was that the parents of my 3rd Great Grandfather, Leroy Carruth, was not known. We long just accepted that as fact, and had not questioned it. I have completed the Y111 test, and in doing so, have discovered my genetic paternal line beyond at least my 3rd Great Grandfather is Anderson. I have spent many months, sifting through my DNA connections, and think I may have isolated it Thomas Anderson, who lived in Rowan County, NC in the mid 1790s, when Leroy was born. Ironically, Leroy named his oldest child and daughter Parmelia Carruth, and his second son, Ross Anderson Carruth. Parmelia is also the name of Thomas’s sister. Thomas Anderson’s parents were Capt James Anderson & mom Margaret Troy. Thomas’s wife was named Martha Dickey. Do any of these names look familiar to any of you in this group? ”

Roy – My Anderson ancestors were in Tennessee at least as early as 1779 and signed the Cumberland Compact at Fort Nashboro (now Nashville) in 1780. I believe that makes them the first Anderson family in Middle Tennessee. Several other unrelated Anderson men followed in the next few years. DNA is the only way we can sort them out.

Sorry. I’ve not been on in some time. Flu. My Anderson ancestor was born in 1774 in NC. The earliest record I’ve found is Rowan Co. Then he married in 1805 in Cabarrus and migrated to Hickman Co. Name is Robert Anderson. Interestingly, at least two of his children’s names follow the “Scots-Irish” naming pattern Second son is named for his wife’s father, Joseph Shinn, and the second daughter is named for his wife’s mother, Jane. His first son’s name is William C. and first daughter’s name is Sarah. Thing is I’ve had the Y111 with few results. Tested downstream with Haplogroup A10318. No Anderson matches. I am hoping to find someone/anyone with connections to Anderson, Shinn, or Ross (wife’s maternal line) families in western NC.

See notes under Elijah, Jr. also for note from Opal concerning Carol Morrison research and dates of death and birth of James and Ann. “Carol said that James was b. 1733 and died Feb. 12, 1791. The birth date has to be wrong. She said Ann Anderson was born 1738 and died Oct. 22, 1804. I doubt this for a birth date, but should be checked. We do not know her death date otherwise.”… There is an Anderson bible in the Rare Book Library known as Tutt Library in Colorado Springs, Colorado according to Carol Morrison. From what Carol Morrison wrote that she had heard about it there are a lot of errors so you should copy the information, Larry, if you get there to see it. However, it needs to be checked and verified a lot before using the material. I simply do not believe that Elijah, Sr. and Susanna could have had all of those children she listed. The names are not familiar either and even our Elijah, Jr. was not on the list. A correspondent of mine attempted to see the bible but she did not have enough information and they would not search the boxes of material they had. It was given to them by Elton Pounds of Kansas, (Smith Center, I think). You have to know this to make them look for it.”… Several of our families joined the Nicholite or New Quaker movement. See Talbot County Minute Book, 1824 Nicholite (New Quakers) record book of marriage first meeting held 1774. Rules covering them adopted 1795. Rules of discipline 1/1/1793. 1st Monthly Meeting – Agreed by Meeting of Friends assembled together on the 5th day of 12th month A.D. 1771.

From a letter written to Opal by Kathleen Tyler, 795 Louise Drive, Xenia, Ohio 22 Oct 1979. She, apparently is, or was, researching the Anderson families. She includes references to a book, “Joseph Nichols and The Nicholites: A Look at the “New Quakers” of Maryland, Delaware, North and South Carolina” by Kenneth Lane Carroll and published by 1962, The Eastern Publishing Co., Easton, Md. On page 25 it included: ….”James and Ann Anderson and Paris and Margaret Chipman, all living in Kent County, Del., had freed their slaves in April and May of 1766, but no more Nicholites seemed to have followed their example.” It also says that William Anderson freed five slaves on 12 Aug. 1767. Part V is abstracts of Wills, only about 27 all told, and of course, James Anderson’s. Some from Caroline Co. and some from Kent Co. Part II is marriages, 61 given, only Anderson is William Anderson of Kent Co., Del., and Ann Causey of Caroline Co., m. 8-31-1791. Part I is birth records. Part III is a short history of Joseph Nichols died in 1770 and in 1774 a small group of 14 men and 3 women organized as a religious society and among those were James and Ann Anderson. They apparently died out by 1800 and the members joined the Quakers or Methodists. ….My Daniel Anderson was a Methodist and came to Greene County in 1806. I would lobe to find the name of his first wife and the names of his other children. Of course some of them may have died young. I cannot even find where Daniel is buried, only know the neighborhood and where Daniel is buried, only know the neighborhood and where he lived. It may also be worth looking a connection with another Quaker family and those families which associated together for several ensuing generations, such as the Hiatt families. I have found a James Anderson who was a witness to the will of William Hiatt, about 1760 period, and whose son, James Jr. associated with the Quaker family of Hiatt’s and went into Ohio with John Hiatt, Jr. The story was that these families first attempted to locate in Ohio in the later 1700’s but were driven back because of conflicts with the Indians. They returned to the Virginia’s and later removed again to Ohio. These families, including our James Anderson and his brothers, were in the same meetings with these Hiatt and other related families. We also see the name of Anderson appearing in names such as Anderson Hiatt, James Anderson Hiatt, William Anderson Hiatt, etc. These families also removed to Ohio, Indiana and as far as to Iowa and later, on to Kansas and Nebraska together. Of course, many of the associated families, such as Bray, Beals, Jones, Davis, etc. find their way into these families. There also was a Susannah Anderson who married John Hiatt (abt. 1770) and removed to Kentucky about 1787 from Vir. and N.C. In these families there were several such names involving Anderson, as above. See Hiatt Family History by William Perry Johnson. Opal Lousin to Betty Holmes, 6 Oct 1982: “I used the Probate Records of Kent Co., Del. to get the first information to the Anderson line and think I copied off all that pertained to the Anderson s. With these leads I sent for copies of the Wills and also found the maiden name of some of the women in the family. There is a book on New Castle Co. Wills also which I used but don’t think any of them apply to us. Most of the children of James and Ann ended up in Ohio. His will also lists John and Ann Callay. James must have displeased his father somehow, as he was essentially denied any inheritance except for an amount of seven shillings and six pence.” From Betty Holmes, 1981 – …”James, our ancestor, married Ann Clifton, dau. of Thomas who must have been a big land owner and apparently wrote his own long “Will”, which was unusual in that day. James and Ann (Clifton) Anderson became interested in Nicholites religion which was even more strict than the Quaker religion at that time and freed the mulatto slave which she had inherited from her father, who by that time was a widower, so we do not know the name of her mother. James Anderson must have been very popular among the people in his locality because we find his name on several wills, including that of Joseph Nichols – founder of the Nicholite religion. After Nichols death the Church broke up and the members joined two of the Quaker churches just over the border in Maryland. The family lived near Marshy Hope Delaware. The children were John, Isaac, Daniel, Elijah, (our line) Major, Eli, Ann Callay, at least. James died in 1791 and Ann died before 1807. Some of the sons are listed in the 1800 census of Mispillion Hundred in Delaware…” WILL OF JAMES ANDERSON, Jr. Proved March 7, 1791 (Died between 9th day of Feb. and 7th day of March 1791) I, James Anderson of Kent County being very weak of body but of perfect mind and sound memory thanks be to God for teh same and knowing that it is appointed for all men to die and as touching my worldly goods my will and desire is that they be disposed of in manner and form as follows viz: First my desire is that the plantation that I bought of William Pickerel (Picknel) be sold by my executor to pay my just debts and as much of my moveable estate as will pay my just debts. 2) I give and bequeath unto my son John Anderson the sum of one shilling to him and his heirs forever. 3) Thirdly, I give and bequeath unto my son James Anderson one cow and calf, one bed and furniture, six plates and two pewter dishes and four pewter basins. 4) Fourthly, I give and bequeath unto my son Isaac Anderson one cow and calf, one bed and furniture, six pewter plates and two dishes and four pewter basins. 5) Fifthly, I give and bequeath unto my son Daniel Anderson one bed and furniture, one cow and calf and six pewter plates and two dishes and four pewter basins. 6) Sixthly, I give and bequeath unto my son Elijah Anderson one horse and saddle and bridle to be worth fifteen pounds and one cow and calf and six pewter plates and two pewter dishes and four pewter basins. 7) Seventhly, I give and bequeath unto my son Major Anderson one horse, saddle and bridal to be worth fifteen pounds and one cow and calf, six pewter plates and two dishes and four pewter basins. 8) Eighthly, I give and bequeath unto my son Eli Anderson one horse saddle and bridle to be worth fifteen pounds, one bed and furniture, one cow and calf six pewter plates and two dishes and four pewter basins. 9) Ninthly, my will and desire is that my daughter Ann Callay shall have one sixth part of my personal estate after my wife Ann Anderson deceased and all the aforementioned legacies be paid off and all my just debts be paid. 10) Tenthly, my will and desire is that all remainder of my real and personal estate be equally divided between my five sons namely James Anderson and my son Daniel Anderson and my son Eli Anderson them and their heirs forever and will that my two sons Daniel Anderson and Elijah Anderson keep all my land except the tract aforementioned left to pay my debts by paying their brothers their full parts of the value of my land whereon I now live. 11) Eleventhly, my will and desire is that my wife Ann Anderson be quietly possessed with the land whereon I now live during her natural life and my will and desire is that my wife Ann Anderson shall keep all the aforementioneded to my children’s legacies in her hands until they arrive to the age of twenty one years and my will and desire is that if either of above mentioned five sons, namely James, Daniel, Elijah or Major or Eli die without heirs that his estate be equally divided between the four surviving brothers. And further my will and desire is that my wife Ann Anderson and my son James Anderson and Daniel Anderson be my whole and sole executors of this my last will and testament and I do renounce, revoke all former wills made by me and do acknowledge this to be my last will and testament. In witness whereunto I have unto set my hand and fixed my seal this ninth day of February in the year of our Lord 1791. In presence of us: Abraham Kimme Unisey Cain (her mark) Ezekiel Anderson James Anderson (Seal) (Looks like same writing as above) Proved by the oath of Ezekiel Anderson and affirmation of Abraham Kimmy this 7th day of March 1791. F. Many, Regr. Delaware State Last Will and Testament James Anderson deceased 7th March 1791 Personally appeared before me, Francis many, register for the Probate of Wills and granting letters of Administration in and for the County of Kent, Ezekiel Anderson, one of the witnesses to the foregoing instrument of writing who upon solemn oath and Abrahm Kimmy who upon his solomn affirmation do say that they and each of them saw James Anderson the within named testator sign, seal and heard him publish pronounce and declare the same as and for his last will and testament that at the time of his so doing he was of sound disposing mind, their names as witnesses saw Unisey Cain sign her name by way of making of her mark as one other witness thereto. In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand at Dover the 7th day of March, Anno Domini 1791. Francis Many, Francis Many, Regr. Recorded in Book M, folio 267. NOTE: (Opal Lousin) I have translated this will into modern language and proof read it so that it has the same meaning. It was very difficult to read due to the writing, spelling, unusual wording, paper, ink, and crossouts. From a letter of Opal dtd. Sept. 1989: “James Anderson, Jr. and wife, Ann Clifton became Quakers in the Nicholite branch through friendship with Joseph Nichols, the founder. After Joseph’s death, they broke up and the few members joined the Northwest Fork and another Quaker meeting. Some of those children of James Anderson, Jr. did not stay Quakers, e.g. Daniel who also went to Ohio. It took a little more doing to get into the regular Quaker Meetings after having been members of the Nicholite branch which was extremely strict. Ann Anderson had manumitted her mulatto that she inherited from her father, Thomas Clifton, and Elijah must have felt the same because there were three branches of Quakers in Ohio and he and Susannah were members of the branch which was anti slavery. Even though some of the Meetings were in Maryland it didn’t mean that they actually moved bodily.” Opal Lousin, 6 Oct 1981 to Betty Holmes …”The one I cannot xerox is that of Thomas Clifton who was more Scotch, I think, than I because he wrote on both sides of the page and I feel it is in his own handwriting. It is a long one. His wife had died before him and he had a house keeper to whom he left something. The ink in those days as well as the paper was so different from now that his Will is quite blurred. I think recently I located the Will of his father, Robert Clifton of Sussex County. Therefore, there is a book available somewhere, but not through National Gen. Society that I believe is named “Some Records of Sussex Co., Del. by Charles H. B. Turner, F172.S8T7 which is regarding the association of families and their relationships in Kent and Sussex Counties. If you see it please watch for any of our lines.”.. …”The first Clifton now is Robert Clifton who died before Thomas was of age in 1720, leaving wife Ann, sons Thomas and Benjamin and daughter Sarah. Robert was of Sussex Co., Del The other names in the family are Brown, (James II’s wife was Elizabeth Brown), and Cain (Susannah Cain m.

Mark, Maurice: I have been at this near full time, ha, often far more for abt 40 years, wearing down time for others to take over. All those I worked with over these years are gone now. Over 10,000 letters, ha, anyone like a truck load of genealogical records, letters, documents? Then have a library, time to unload too, have the full Hinshaw 1st Edition, Willard Heiss Indiana records, all of Delaware SHARFF books too, hundreds of books from 1600 -1700- 1800 – 1900 for references. Has become more of a game now, reached 2 million 304 thousand some odd and my program popped up to say, You have maxed out the limits of this program. So went back to previous file backup of about 1.5 million but that is near full now too. IS THERE ANY PROGRAM THAT HAS NO LIMIT TO NUMBERS TO INPUT? They want me to break down to 4 separate files but that destroys the unity and cross references to interlinking families. I also found that near all I have done is now put into the LDS and Ancestry records anyway, ha, too antique, time for others. Lots of fun but this Internet has outpaced any individual work today.

Hello all, I’ve just upgraded my father’s yDNA to the y111 with hopes of busting through my brick wall of George Coffee Anderson. I’m also still chipping away at the paper trail. I’m also on the cusp of my first trip back to Mississippi to visit the gave of the progenitor of my line of Andersons (said George Coffee Anderson 1799 – 1889) in Smith County.

The above Anderson, Gordon, and Grant, are related to each other, but their Y-DNA is unique for their given surname. But having the same downstream to R-U106, that of S16361 traveled the same basic path my Y-DNA traveled as Proto-Germanic R-U106, onto Anglo-Saxon Briton, to the Anglo-Scotish border then with Border Pacification to The Ulster Plantation or to Aberdeenshire. https://canmore.org.uk/site/64234/lochinvar-castle https://www.google.com/maps/place/Lochinvar/@54.6352926,-3.7598735,8.23z/ http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/~mcdonald/genetics/u106-geography-2015-revised.pdf https://www.familytreedna.com/public/U106?iframe=ycolorized The R-U106>..>FGC15048 are related likely adopted their surnames from the same came out of the same Anglo-Saxon surname basis, up from Anglia near Debatable Lands, then onto Aberdeenshire.

Brigham (bridge home, of East Riding, Yorkshire), Young (Border way of naming Young Dand ‘Ellot’), of the Later Day Saints, has opened to the public, and surname search of immigrants. “The Immigrant Ancestors Project, sponsored by the Center for Family History and Genealogy at Brigham Young University, uses emigration registers to locate information about the birthplaces of immigrants in their native countries, which is not found in the port registers and naturalization documents in the destination countries. Volunteers working with scholars and researchers at Brigham Young University are creating a database of millions of immigrants based on these emigration registers.” http://immigrants.byu.edu/ They also find, FTDNA as surnames are concerned search tool quite useful. Note there are about ten thousand people named ‘Brigham’, as opposed to about a million named ‘Young’, so many more ‘Young’, than ‘Brigham’, are found in FTDNA groups https://forebears.io/surnames https://www.familytreedna.com/group-project-search?sType=ew&Searchname2=Brigham&search=Brigham https://www.familytreedna.com/group-project-search?sType=ew&Searchname2=Brigham&search=Young https://www.familytreedna.com/group-project-search?sType=ew&Searchname2=Brigham&search=Anderson

A great statement ‘2 decimal places (e.g. 96.73%) misleading:’ With FTDNA, not making the number of measured years per generation available shows their understanding of mathematics. The above shows that James M. Irvine, has a strong understanding of the mathematics when it is being applied to genealogical research. Numbers am familiar with are 30 and 25 years a generation. At 30±5 and at 25±2½, but will be utilizing a higher more mathematically precise at the units digit e.g. 27±½. For the mathematics to be correct the precision of the answer can not be more than the precision of the input. To get an answer such as 96.73% is mathematically correct, this shows the level of mathematical knowledge which FTDNA is utilizing.

From notes of Opal Lousin, 3 Dec 1992, ….”I don’t believe that it was at all likely that the Anderson’s of our line stopped off in Virginia and knew the Hiatts, etc. I think they followed Elijah directly to Ohio from Delaware, except that the oldest son John went to N.C. first and then to Ohio. Some of James Anderson’s (brother of Elijah) had children who went to Ohio. Some of James Anderson’s (brother of Elijah) had children who went to Ohio also and some to Indiana. David Anderson’s line is of that James. From notes by Kathleen Taylor to Opal in 1979: “There was a John Anderson here early and supposedly from S.C., but according to the census records in 1850 his son said he was born in Delaware. John died in 1814 and his wife was Elizabeth. A cousin of my father always believed that she had been a Horney as the first son was John Horney Anderson. The second son was James. This John was supposedly in the Rev. War. I wonder if it could be that this John was the son of James who died in 1791, and maybe James didn’t believe in fighting. Anyway, this John and Elizabeth Anderson’s son James married Pricilla Coffin and had two sons Joseph and John, who married Stansfield girls, sisters of my Mary Jane. This cousin, who is now deceased, told me that they were double cousins, that is to my Thomas Anderson and Mary Jane Stansfield. James and Priscilla are buried at CC MM but no marker was found for her.” NOTE: From Opal Lousin to ?Avis? “Sometime ago you were looking for more information about the Horney and Anderson lines with Lydia first marrying Paris, then Aaron Mendenhall as second wife. This week I accidentally came upon a family history which shows: Will of John Anderson, dated 9th day of January 1812 in Greene Co., Ohio, wife Elizabeth, sons John Horney Anderson, James Anderson, daughters Esther, Lydia, and Rhoda. This John Anderson was born 1763, son of James and Ann Clifton Anderson, also my ancestors, all born in Kent Co., Delaware. John was left one shilling by James when he died in 1791. This was possibly because he had received his share or because it is thought he fought in the Rev. War. He must have been extremely young! Horney Family – William Horney b. 1750, Caroline Co., Md. d. 1829 m. 1772 to Hannah Chipman b. 11-11-1753 or 1756. She died after 1804. Ch. included Parris b. 1776 who married Lydia Anderson, James b. 1774 m. Eshter Anderson, William b. 1784 m. Rhoda Anderson. Of course, there were others, Margaret, Deborah m. 1) Daniel Mendenhall, 2) John Brooks, Mray, Daniel, Hannah, John, Chipman, Sarah, and Jeffery. A Mrs. Wilbert A. Warner, 482 Maple St., Algonac, Md. 48001 had put a query in the Ohio Gen. Newsletter in 1984 which was concerning this line but got it all mixed up. After Lydia married Aaron Mendenhall they went to Indiana or Ill. Aaron was brother of John who married Ruth Brown, my ancestor.”… Mispillion Hundred Assessment Book for 1803-4, Kent Co., Delware John Anderson, Lame Total 62 acres of land @ $3 186. 103 ditto @ $3.50 360. 50. 546.50 ——————- 2 horses 80 1 yoke of oxen 40 4 cows 40 2 three grasses 24 1 yearling 3 calves 12 1 sow and 7 shotes 11 Pole tax 150 —- 903.50

Of the first Thomas I have 3 named sons and 3 unnamed daughters. NOTES ON THOMAS From notes of Opal Lousin, 3 Dec 1992. …”In New Jersey Archives 1678, May 11, p. 129 there is a statement that at Tuckahoe Meeting House Stephen Durban married Rebeckah Anderson, relique of Thomas Anderson. We might keep this information in mind as it may come in handy sometime. The early churches were known as meeting houses and were not necessarily Quaker in religion as we have come to use the term. Kent and Sussex Counties, Delaware were formed in 1682 and renamed from St. Jones and Morrekill District, also called Deale, respectively. Liber B, folio 61, Kent Co., Del. gives information about Thomas Anderson’s death and papers filed 6th day of April 1708. I think this is the one we believe to be the father of Thomas who died c1734. An Elizabeth Brown was executrix of estate of John Brown who died in Kent Co., Del. with papers written up on 19th day of April 1708. Could John Brown and wife Elizabeth be the parents of Joshua Brown, father of Elizabeth who married James Anderson? I do not have papers on this.

Richael Ridgeley From the book, Historical Records of Old Frederick Co., Va. by Dr. Wilmer Kerns, publ. 1991 pg. 74 Anderson, Thomas born in Hampshire Co., Va. (Note, then it was Orange Co., Va.) About 1735 and died in Fairfield Co., Ohio in 1806. He married Elizabeth Bruce. Thomas parents were William and Rachel Anderson, among the first settlers along the Potomac, Hampshire Co., Va. Source, records submitted to DAR by descendants. From Opal Lousin: This is a copy of material for hte Anderson Reunion in 1981 when she and her husband, Max, came from Chicago to be with us. ANDERSON LINEAGE Thomas Anderson purchased from Thomas Berry, Nov. 1730, 150 acres called “Burberry’s Lott” in Murderkill Hundred, Kent Co., Del. and died about 1734-39. His “will” names James, Bartholomew, John and wife Elizabeth Brown and three daughters unnamed. James Anderson, son of Thomas, married Elizabeth Brown and was still a minor at the tie of his father’s will in 1734. James inherited the land which he sold just prior to his death in 1761 for 240 pounds, his father having paid 35 pounds. The last was on an original grant of 5000 acres and the town of Vernon is on the old grant. James Anderson’s wife, Elizabeth, was the daughter of Joshua Brown and wife Mary. She had brothers and sisters in Kent Co., Delaware also and we think she probably died about 1773 in Mispillion Hundred where they lived. Their children were James, our ancestor; William, Elizabeth Killingsworth, (wife of Nathaniel), Rebecca McNatt (wife of Richard), Ezekiel, Elijah, Major, Mary and Ann, at least. James Anderson, our ancestor, married Ann Clifton, daughter of Thomas who must have been a big land owner and apparently wrote is own long “will”, which was unusual in that day. James and Ann Anderson became interested in Nicholite religion which was even more strict than the Quaker religion at that time and freed the mulatto slave which she had inherited from her father, who by that time was a widower, so we do not know the name of his her mother. James Anderson must have been very popular among the people in his locality because we find his name on several wills, including that of Joseph Nichols, the founder of the religion. After Nichols death the church broke up and the members joined two of the Quaker churches just over the border in Maryland. The family lived near Marshy Hope, Delaware. The children were John, James, Isaac, Daniel, Elijah, (our ancestor), Major, Eli, Ann Callay, at least. James died in 1791 and Ann died before 1807. Some of the sons are listed in the 1800 census of Mispillion Hundred in Delaware. Our ancestor, Elijah Anderson, married Susanna Cain in Delaware and was possibly the one who got a land grant in Ohio in 1801. Because she was shown as Susanna Anderson, wife of Elijah, in her father’s will distribution in 1795 it is possible that one or more of their children may have been born in Delaware. Susanna Cain’s father was John and her mother was Triphana who survived her husband, and was still living in 1812. This was actually a distribution of assets rather than a “will” which sometimes discloses even more information than a “will”. The children of Elijah and Susanna Cain Anderson were Reuben, who married Hannah and for some reason he was dropped form the Quaker Church and they moved to near Crawfordville, Ind. Susanna, who married a man named Andrews, was in Clark Co., Ohio in 1829. Mary and our ancestor Elijah Jr., Elijah Sr. was very active in the Quaker church in Ohio and helped get he meeting going at Greene Plain MM which was located at or near Selma, Ohio, Clark Co. was part of Greene and Clinton Co., Ohio. So he may not have moved bodily to be able to attend this meeting which was set off from Caesars Creek MM where he originally attended. Many of his brothers came to this same general area soon after and can be found in censuses. The Greene Plain MM was split three ways with the Anderson’s going with the Anti-slavery group which was part of the cause that eventually their records do not appear in the Quaker records for research. About the time that Reuben and Hannah Anderson went to Montgomery Co., Ind. our ancestor Elijah Jr. went to Morgan Co., Ind. and married Rosa Ann Bray, the daughter of Abijah Bray and Isabella Scott, in about 1837. Also at about that time one of their uncles, Eli and wife and family went from Clinton Co., Ohio, to the same place and eventually they moved to Oskaloosa, Iowa where the parents, Eli and Mary are buried in an old Quaker Cemetery near the first Quaker Meeting House for that area and their childrnes records appear in the Iowa Yearly meeting records. Abijah Bray and their children’s records appear in the Iowa Yearly Meeting records. Abijah Bray and wife Isabella and their children Allen Richard (oldest), Seth, Ibby, Martin, John, Kezia, Ruth and Sarah went at the same time as Elijah Anderson, Jt. and wife Rosa Bray Anderson and their children Allen Richard and Susanna who had been born in 1839 and 1837 respectively to henry Co., Iowa where they stayed a short while in 1840, returned to Morgan Co., Iowa where possibly a son Daniel was born in 1841 if the Quaker records are accurate, and returned again to Mahaska or Jefferson Co., Iowa in the spring of 1842. Soon after we find in the records the children of Abijah Bray are referred to as “orphans” and so far no other records can be found as to the dates of their deaths. Some of the Bray children stayed in the Quaker Church, some were disowned for marrying out of unity (mou) or the church, etc. and later joined another church with Seth and wife and family going to Kansas. Elijah and Rosa Anderson were living in Pleasant Grove twp. Mahaska Co. except that in the 1850 census record only Rosa’s name is shown as living there with her children including a son named George R., and a son in law, William Durbin and a son Napolean Foscett were added to the census of Joseph Foscett in 1856 in Union Twp, Mahaska Co., Iowa, see notes under Rosa Ann Bray, etc.

My kit 54434, slow coming in results, being long delayed, but MTY DNA, 111 level should be showing, the 700 series says by the 19th this month, September. My Anderson line from Scotland, arrived 1634, have good trunk line, but do also note that someone has made a mess of a grandfather Elijah Anderson Jr. online, having several cousins of that name, near same ages and places, so someone has merged all to one person. I have worked 40 years on this genealogy but now see that my work has been mostly and completely put online thru different sites, so seems I am antique now with little more to add. I have some volumes given me years ago by a cousin 100 years of age, so have to see if I could put those records to a data base, letters, bibles, pictures, etc. from Rev. War to mid 1960’s. BALES/BEALS, etc., HIATT, DEARING, TAYLOR, etc. Am glad to allow anyone access to my complete DNA studies, I know nothing of how to use those but make available to any who can. The Carolina and most the Southern Anderson’s would fit thru these lines, Thomas, James Sr. James Jr. then to my own Elijah Sr. Elijah Jr. etc. from Delaware thru Carolina’s, OH, IN, to Iowa by 1830 to work on the River Boat projects just opening up at the mouth of the Ohio and Mississippi. Most these lines were Quaker. I would suggest the best way to track may be to start with James Anderson Sr. following the Quaker Records, then land, census etc. As I had once recorded over 10,000 descendants of Thomas Anderson but lost all with computer failure and several backups on the old 5 1/2 inch floppy’s, never was able to redo those but know records are available. Try Hinshaw, Heiss, especially. Always interesting, but more of a game for me now since everything seems to be online now anyway. My file reached 2 million 203 thousand plus then came message I had maxed out the limits of the program. Anyone know of a program that has no limits? Best wishes and luck. If anyone wants copy of my data base, glad to share, just need cost, thumb drive or? I can’t do much more with it anyway. Time to share and think of selling off my library too, let others carry on.

Both in Denmark and Norway, ANDERSEN is the fifth most common surname. In Sweden the name Andersson is second to Johansson, like Anderson competing with Johnson. Do any of you Anderson, match Y-DNA markers with an Andersen, then you know you are most likely and likely do not want to admit it an Anglo-Dane like me, which is a R-U106 Elwald (Ewald)-Elliott, and maybe ended up with that blond hair, tough mine is dark, and blue eyes like me.

Recently did my own DNA with Ancestry (sorry FTDNA) but with my Mom and Brother both doing FTDNA I thought I’d broaden my search by using Ancestry. We were trying to hopefully locate my 1/2 brother in England or a child of his or some relation. Well we did find him but only by accident because I started entering my dad’s info into Ancestry and I got a little green leaf and one thing led to another and my sister and I are booking our flights to England as we speak. Anyway, I’ve loaded everyone up on Gedcom trying to find common matches. I don’t understand any of this but thought the more the better that is out there. My 2 x great grandfather was sired by an Anderson man in Jefferson Co Illinois Mt. Vernon to be exact. My 2x gg was born in 1842. My brothers YDNA matched a William Anderson b. 1827 in Scotland d. 1901 in Australia. So obviously we need to be looking into that man’s male line for an Anderson born early enough before him that an immigrant came to the USA and settled in Tennessee and made their family’s way to Illinois to produce my 2xgg by 1842. This is where I’m hoping Ancestry will help me.

Hi David. It is great you have been able to trace your half brother. You do have connections to a great number of Anderson matches. I would suggest it would be in your best interest to increase your y-DNA37 to the 111 marker level. Stanley Keith Anderson matches you at the 37 marker to a genetic distance of 2.

David, I match Stanley Keith Anderson at the 111 marker level with a genetic distance of 9. We go pretty far back as far as a possible common ancestor, but I he is currently the only match I have at 111. Two facts – my 4th paternal grandfather is unknown, and my yDNA has no Carruth matches. I have also been tested with two other Carruths from common ancestry, but which split 8 generations ago into three lines. They match, but I do not. Good luck with your search. I am currently trying to find if the Andersons that lived in and near my family in western NC in the late 18th century are descended from this line of Andersons. If not, then my Anderson “injection” would likely have occurred 3 generations prior.

Hi David, So you are saying you have done your Y-DNA with Ancestry.com?

Might I suggest you get your Mum and brother to join the ANDERSON Project as then you also have their DNA to look at and compare with the English/Scottish “brother”. Just a thought.

I see you are No 439 Lee. You do have a number of mutations but some of those, like the CDY and 570, are classified as volatile markers and can mutate at a drop of a hat. I see you have been put right in where the others on either side are much the same as yourself and would guess much the same Y-DNA background. You are only written down as R1b (M269) which is common for the Celtic. Stay with the Anderson/Andersen Project and watch how you go. I would suggest when there is a Special, and you can afford it, do the Big Y-700 and the compare who is with you then. Note the guy below your results has taken his Y-DNA a step further and so knows more fully what direction he is going and belongs to, than the basic R1b(M269). Kia Ora in your quest Lee.

My Y-111 STR Matches number 13 and are made up of the highland Gordons, Setons, Sutherlands, Grants and Shaws. I am still trying to figure out how I connect to this most powerful Seton/Gordon Clan and noble family. My earliest DNA verified Anderson ancestors were Matthew and John Anderson who were “long-hunters” in Middle Tennessee and signed the Cumberland Compact in 1779 at French Lick (later Fort Nashboro – now Nashville, Tn). They later received a bounty land grant located at Station Camp Creek on the Cumberland River in Sumner County for defending the new settlements from Indian attacks when it was still wilderness. There were several other unrelated Anderson families that arrived in the following years which greatly confuses everyone. Every Anderson family seems to have a John and a James. MY best educated guess paper trail currently takes me back through Colonial Virginia to Scotland. I have found many of the Anderson trees you find online to be questionable. Mistakes made by earlier researchers are now just blindly copied by others and posted. DNA testing is the only thing that sorts them out. My Big Y results has one Gordon match and has broken down a huge brick wall for me. It provides a “North Star” that dictates that my Anderson family tree must eventually get back to Scotland and Scandinavia. I just keep hoping more Andersons will Big-Y test. For the benefit of other Anderson readers looking for their roots: descendants of these two men settled at: Martin Creek in Jackson County Tennessee; Giles County Tennessee; Jackson County Alabama (my family); Union County Illinois; Grundy County Missouri; and Ellis County Texas.

“I have no idea how to use this DNA data. I have been with this since about 2006, just ordered the entire set I think, the 700 and the mt full sequence? I have worked on my family history abt 40 years, old style. I am glad to share all but a cousin I had corresponded with for past 25 years visited personally for a few days, set me up with a lot of new stuff, just trying to learn but over my head, then showed me with a touch of his fingers he could pull up all my life’s work instantly. Ha, kind of useless now, but always curious. Glad to share what I have. Ancestry goes to Scotland but have no direct ties there, since about 1634, and believe a part of a will from a Thomas Anderson, b. abt 1608, without reviewing? James Sr. James Jr. Elijah Sr. Elijah Jr. Allen Richard, George Henry, Arthur Monroe, Glenn Woodrow Anderson to self. At least starting with James Sr. were Quakers up to my grandfather when Quaker faith could not keep up with westward movement. The Ancestry site destroys the genealogy with Elijah Jr. tying about 5 marriages with other Elijah Jrs. who were cousins, all into the same person but does straighten out with Elijah Sr. If anyone knows how to use or what to do with this info glad to share.

Larry I am with you. I have NO CLUE. I manage my brother’s YDNA kit as he has passed away. He matched a William Anderson b. 1827 in Dumfrieshire Scotland d. 1901 in Australia, I need to find Williams male line in Scotland to see who came to America because our American Andersons were most likely in Tennessee then into Jefferson Co. Illinois but I can’t pinpoint the “father” of my 2x great grandfather, only have a suspect. I did find a William Anderson b. 3-25-1798 in Ayrshire Scotland who died 3-6-1859 in Salt Lake City UT, son of Thomas b. 1739. If I can find a connection between those two Williams, then I have my immigrant to the USA. My brother also matches a Thomas Anderson b. 1755. I’m using Ancestry now to try and make some connections but you are correct in that people are destroying lines because they will attach anyone to their tree without any reference or source. Just assuming what they find on there is true. I made a huge note on my 2x great grandfather to that effect basically balling out anyone who doesn’t match MINE because they are my direct blood and I did the work to get there. We had an illegitimacy which is why I had my brother do his YDNA to confirm what I believed to be true, proving we ARE in fact Andersons. Now to just find my immigrant male Anderson. I have uploaded my brother, my mom, and myself to GedMatch as well in hopes of finding my Anderson through there.

Hi David. I have had a look at your y-DNA 37 test results. Your best result at the 37 marker level is a Donald Norman Shaw at a GD of zero. He has completed the y-DNA 111 test. Also you have y-DNA 37 matches with 9 Gibson matches. Two of the Gibson matches have also completed the y-DNA 111. My suggestion is that you should definitely upgrade to the y-DNA 111 test. This level will confirm their matches to you. I cannot see any Anderson paternal link at this time. You do have Family Finder matches to the Anderson and Gibson surnames however. Perhaps your match is a maternal match. Best of luck with your research.

The application has information that might help, you would have to work backwards in your search. If you need copy I can try and figure out how to get to you. Just an idea…:)

In fact, the World Families site says the following on its main page: “After 14 years of service to the genetic genealogy community, WorldFamilies Project Administration services closed on May 23, 2018.” I am thinking that this is a standard email that has not been updated for awhile. Is that right? If not, could you advise how to get to the Anderson page mentioned in the email as follows: The Anderson DNA Project web site is at – http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~andersondna/ This is our official web site and you should find information that will help you in your Anderson research, Anderson lineages and general information about the project.

Hi David, I have had a mate of mine join your ANDERSON/ANDERSEN Project, but he does not have Y-DNA/MtDNA … Only his Family Finder. Kit Number IN47420. He was born in Denmark and lives here in Australia but has made mention of maybe having a Spanish lady in his Family Tree and so we did his Family Finder. Perhaps you can invite him to tell you what he knows about his tree. Ole and I used to work together back in the mid 1980s so are old mates. I just turned 75 six days ago and I am not the old one. Interesting about the World Families going out of production. As for us losing our websites it happened in November 2017 and came back in about November 2018. A message came through our FTDNA members that we could ask for our websites back. Some have got them back, some have not but are slowly getting them back. To do so it pays to join the Rootsweb Help site and they will be able to give you more information on how to get up and running again. My FREEPAGES ~dnapower had been issued with that name and a password back in late 2002. Since joining up with the rootsweb Help line I have been directed to a special password zone and you now make your own password but it must be between 10 to 32 characters, and some are not allowed, whilst a few are required, using one that one would not normally use when one “invents” a password. It is not easy geeting one’s password, even though they have given you your website back so you will need to persevere.

This is just to show we are getting our websites back; albeit we are with FTDNA Activity pages now too. Here is the I1 Haplogroup Result pages and includes some other haplogroups, whilst the main one on the other page is R1b. http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~dnapower/genealogy/dna/iresults.htm We have both the Kit number and also another number that I issued as each person joined us. Example I am PP00018P and clicking on this number shows my paternal family tree. On the right of the page is Continued Results for another two pages. So you now see we have access to our FREEPAGES, just have to ask www.rootsweb.com to release them. They gave me both of mine without any questions. Kia Ora. Warren C. O. Power

Ann Cornelia 1814-1891) was a large slaveholder in Lynchburg. My great grandfather’s (Robert Anderson 1864-1956) death certificate lists a William as his father and that he was born in Lynchburg. There are census records that list Robert as mulatto and some as black and I have cousins with various levels of African and European ancestry.

Hi Christie. You are related to a Carolyn Anderson who is an X-match 2nd to 4th cousin. You have 13 Anderson named persons in your Family Finder. You have only 4 Cooper named persons. The best way for you to see this is pull up your chromosome browser and put the surname you are looking for in the search tab on the top right of this page. This is the reason I suggested you list on the Anderson site. I myself have confirmed cousins in my Paternal haplogroup results from both the Anderson and Cooper surnames. This is why I volunteer to look after the Anderson as well as the Cooper results. My kit is 498308. It all goes back to the early times before surnames were started. Have a look at the site below which will help you understand why this happened. https://dnaandfamilytreeresearch.blogspot.com/2018/07/goodbye-npe-hello-sds-some-causes-of.html You should consider when you can to find your maternal haplogroup by doing the mtDNA full sequence test. This will enable you to be matched with others of your maternal background. Good luck with your search.

Hi Randolph. Your Paternal haplogroup would be the same as your father and your grand father. If you do the mtDNA Full sequence maternal test, this will give you your mothers haplogroup which will be the same as yours. You actually do not need to have your parents complete the test. Your results will however connect you with any other families who may have your family back ground.

Maurice, I apologize, I thought that I have done that. I may not have punched all of the buttons. I just just attempted to give you access again. If you do not have access, please give me some guidance on how to do so. Thanks

Hi Kirk. I have been able to look at your results ok. I strongly feel your best course of action at this stage is to increase your y-DNA 67 to 111 marker level. I would suggest you do the Family Finder also. as this will give you an idea which family surname groups you match. At this stage you have a more positive match with the Barnett and McLaren families at the 67 marker stage. Hope this helps.

My name is Kirk T Anderson Jr. My earliest know ancestor is Richard Anderson b. 1817 Cumberland Co PA, d. 1890 Iowa or Nebraska. He was a blacksmith. His wife was Rhuanna Kirkpatrick b. 1814 PA, d. 1896 Iowa. Richards father was born in Scotland (1850 censes) I am looking for the parents and or siblings that would have resided in Cumberland Co. PA abt. 1790 to 1890. Richards family migrated to DeKalb, IL abt. 1861, and later south to Iowa, Kansas and Texas. Some siblings likely remained in PA while others may have migrated to other states. Anyone with an Anderson connection in PA, please contact me. Thank you.

Hi Kirk. I cannot help you with your search as you have not given admin any project access. Please grant either limited or better still advanced access, if you wish me to give you any help.

Hi – do the kits in the ungrouped section not fit in with the other groups? Or have they just not been assigned to a group, yet?

3 minutes ago Thomas McDonald 9 hours ago https://www.libraryireland.com/Pedigrees1/cromwellian-devastation-ireland.php Like Maurice Anderson Just now Thomas has come across the above web site. It describes very clearly why our Irish ancestors end up immigrating to other countries around the world to escape the hardships and violence at home..
