Please delete it for me, I don’t know how, Thanks, Karen
Done.
I know my cousin matches Carolyn Estep (A433356) through Ancestry, but I don’t have her on GedMatch yet. The surname connection between our families seems to be Brower-Dillman-Dillon as best as I can see.
Sizemore – 2%
A540385 – descendant of Old Ned Sizemore
A697483 – descendant of Sheba Sizemore 1813 NC – 1853 WV
* Our Brower-Gates cousin is not on Gedmatch yet, but her matches on Ancestry show 7 cousins with Sizemore ancestors including Old Ned Sizemore specifically.
George Edward ‘Old Ned’ Sizemore 1776 Mecklenburg VA 1856 Perry KY – son of Catawba Chief Bear Hart – aka William Jackson m. Winifred Green 1701-1825Bunch – 1%
FN113313 – Mary Jane Bunch 1736 VA – 1818 TN
* matches from our cousin on ancestry:
Nancy Bunch 1800 NC – 1838 IN married Aaron Harrell (this cousin also has Collins, Yancey, Harris, Carpenter, Blaylock, Shook, Austin, Smith and Throckmorton)
Elizabeth Bunch 1785 KY – 1846 Linn MO married Bolin Baker 1784-1840 (also has Blevins, Bowling, Brave, Brown, Byrd, Day, Griffin, Hitchcock, Jones, Sutton, Tuttle, Wolf, Yager)
In order to maintain privacy I don’t want to post names and pictures of present day descendants. This collage are pictures of some of the DNA cousins we share a lot of these names with. None of these people show any Native American heritage on Ancestry. However, they all have Finland/Northern Russia. The Finns are much more Asian descended than many other Europeans. It seems like they could have this Eurasian ancestry confused with Native American ancestry. I’ve seen several others postulate the same thing.
