TERRY - LINEAGE GROUP 7 - Discussion

Haplogroup I

(This is of course a work in progress)

Individuals in this group who have DNA tested as of June 08, 2007: T-48, T-49 and T-34 have ordered kits. It appears this haplogroup will be I. This suggests that these two individuals ARE NOT related to the descendants of Jasper Terry of Botetourt County, Virginia in Group 4 who are haplogroup G. Click at left to see William Terry and documented proofs for his children.

The two individuals who have tested are linked to John Terry and Esther Brown of Botetourt County by both documentation and DNA tests. They are believed to be descended from William Terry of Botetourt County, Virginia. Their 25 marker tests indicate they are not related to the Jasper Terry in the same area the partriarch noted in Group 4.

The family of John Terry and Esther Brown believed to be connected to William Terry of Botetourt is covered in a Partial History of William Terry and his descendants 1724-1981 by Lula Terry Elliott ca 1981 covers the descendants of John Terry and Esther Brown. This booklet has many family sheets and some great family photos. The math is fuzzy for me on William Terry's children in her book. Please see the discussion in later years concerning the marriage to Rachel. See William Terry of Botetourt County, Virginia by Kenneth L. Dyer in 1999. Also see article by David Tavillion Bunton Mercy Terry Harrison of Botetourt Co., VA

In light of recent DNA results please read pages 34-40 Montgomery-Botetourt County Deeds and Marriages Sorry, these were done on a typewriter and scanned in to Adobe Acrobat pages. See files TFHMAR83-4.pdf and TFHMAR83-5.pdf at the link above.

In addition there is information by George A. Terry on the Scott County, Tennessee Terry families which attempts to show a connection with this family. To date I have had discussions with several Terry males out of the line of John Terry and Esther Brown, and we have two tests ordered T-48 and T-49. See Link at right -- Terry Family of George A. Terry of Goodlettsville, TN

Rae Davis Smith has information her family and the family of John Terry and Ester Brown.

So early descendants of this Terry family can be found in Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee and Texas.

As more males test in this group we will probably see a more clearly defined modal group.

In comparing 25 markers, the probability that T-48 and T-49 shared a common ancestor within the last....
4 generations	8 generations	12 generations	16 generations	20 generations	24 generations
25.59%	55.32%	75.65%	87.44%	93.74%	96.96%
*The above numbers are based exclusively on the comparison of their Y-DNA results, which show no mismatches. I believe a generation is considered to be 25 years.

The FTDNATiP results are based on the mutation rate study presented during the 1st International Conference on Genetic Genealogy, on Oct. 30, 2004. The above probabilities take into consideration the mutation rates for each individual marker being compared.

Jonathan Terry [A Quaker], b 31 Mar 1818 in PA; m Sarah Jane Anderson d 22 Dec 1886 in Ontario, CANADA - Marsha Terry [Marsha.Terry AT powerauthority.on.ca]
- Alexander Terry, b 20 May 1852 in King, York Co, Ontario, CANADA; m Mary Ann Danbrook d 09 Nov 1933 in Newmarket, Ontario, CANADA
  - Walter Cecil Terry, b 09 Jun 1887 in Newmarket, York Co, Ontario, CANADA; m Annie Alberta Swain d 10 Aug 1966 in Newmarket, York, Ontario, CANADA T-34

At this point we do not know who the most common recent ancestor may be between Jonathan Terry and descendants of William Terry. More research is needed prior to Jonathan in Pennsylvania records. It is interesting to note that a Bucks County, Pennsylvania descendant T-41 John Terry Sr, b ca 1775 prob Bucks Co PA , d aft 1850 - Patrick A. Terry [papatee2 AT bresnan.net] is not related per DNA test to anyone in Group 7. So the Quaker Terry men in Pennsylvania were apparently not a homogeneous group.

In comparing 25 markers, the probability that T-34 and T-48 8 shared a common ancestor within the last....
4 generations	8 generations	12 generations	16 generations	20 generations	24 generations
27.59%	58.44%	78.43%	89.43%	95.02%	97.71%
*The above numbers are based exclusively on the comparison of their Y-DNA results, which show no mismatches. I believe a generation is considered to be 25 years.

Results indicate T-34 is a genetic distance of 1 with T-48 and a genetic distance of 2 with T-49
