The process is slow, but progress is being made toward determining Ralph Dayton’s Haplogroup. We now have matching Y-DNA results of at least four of Ralph’s descendants. Two are descended through Ralph’s son Samuel and one is descended through Ralph’s son Robert. We have a fourth match to Ralph, and Deane Dayton continues his work to determine if that match is connected through Samuel or Robert.

Dayton Ancestry 
I have matches to Samuel Parsons Dayton 1623, Ellen Dayton 1626 and Robert Pudder Dayton 1628 From Ancestry. They are all 5th to 8th. I have Big-Y on order which should bring matches much closer. Meade found and advised me of my Dayton connection.

Steve, Let me know if and when it’s time for me to have a new DNA test run. Apparently I don’t have your new e-mail address, since your retirement? Hope all is well. Won’t be long before you can drag the motorcycle out of the garage. Terry
