R1b-SRY2627 |
Council
Bryant MESSER (c1805-1870s) & Sarah [FRANKLIN]
NC to Lincoln Co., TN, to Tippah Co., MS; converted to
MERCER
Two descendants are a tight match with the Pickens CORBINs
indicating an NPE,
which appears
to be in their line because they aren't matching the
MESSER/MERCER family they should match. |
Erby
Gaylord CORBIN (1855-1917) & Mary Elizabeth RIDLEY
Cherokee Co., GA > Bradley Co., TN > Hughes Co., OK
A paper descendant of the above Peter CORBIN whose tested
descendant matches individuals surnamed FIELDS,
so he apparently has an NPE in his line, either in or
downstream of Erby.
We won't know where the NPE occurred until more lines
of Erby's descendants are tested. |
R1b-L159 |
John
A. CORBIN (1899-1966) & Lillie Mae WHITE
Gilmer Co., GA > Gordon Co., GA > Murray Co., GA > Hamilton
Co., TN
John is the son of an unmarried Amanda
CORBIN, descendant of the above Peter CORBIN.
Testing shows he is a genetic WOODRING, who are American
descendants of
Paul VAUTRIN (c1570- ) of Goerlingen, Alsace |
I2-F1295 |
Peter
CORBIN (c1740s- ) & Elizabeth SEAWRIGHT
of Lexington Co., SC |
I1-L22 |
Ira
SHERMAN-CORBIN (1769-1810s) & Phoebe __?__
from Massachusetts to Newberry Co., SC, by 1805; widow
and son to Gwinnett Co., GA
The one descendant of Ira so far tested has a close DNA
match with descendants of Henry
SHERMAN of Dedham, Essex, England, so it appears this
CORBIN has an NPE
in his lineage.
Back in New England, there are several paper connections
between these SHERMANs and the
Muddy River CORBINs, so his paper connection, if found,
would presumably be to one of the them. |
