Hi Pauline, Because you are a member of the McCown Group someone in your family must have had the FTDNA Y-DNA test. Do those test results appear on www.ysearch.org? If so, what ysearch ID number would I look for to find your family matches? My ysearch ID is G2K6P.

There has been a lot of supposition over the years that the Francis

intertwined at some point. As I recall, this was substantiated by some
of the DNA testing. Does anyone have any details on that?

Re: Rollcall
James Ross McCown born 1959
<br
At this point I might agree on the Alexander and wife Elizabeth (I have
never seen any evidence Elizabeth was a Moore but it is widely stated).
He is the one that died about 1802-ish in Chester SC. Since the wife
outlived him I would feel a birth date of 1713 might be somewhat too
early or else she would be much younger than he. If he was born 1713 he
would be about 80 or approaching 80. 80 is reasonable but most people of
that time did not live that long. I sense he may have been somewhat
younger than 80.
The next generation would be John, called Major John, in the records. He
would be the father of Sampson. If Sampson was born about 1775 John had
to have been born 20-25 years earlier or about 1750-55.
If John were born 1750-55 I would expect Alexander to be born more like
1725-30. I have a guy named John coming down from Pennsylvania in 1756
to Chester County. Maybe Alexander and John of Pennsylvania are
brothers? I am studying each of the McCowns lands in Chester County. I
believe the land sold by Sampson McCown when he went to TN to be a part
of the same grant patented to John of Pennsylvania.
Right now I am now working on a couple projects that are taking a lot of
time-I am trying to identify all (or as many as possible) of the Free
People of Color in Texas prior to the Civil War. I also have been
working with the William Walker papers of the soldiers and citizens of
Nicaragua who were there under Walker in the 1850's.
THEN, I can get back to a project I was working on trying to identify
and plat out the McCown lands in Chester County, SC. I already have done
a lot of the work. Just need to complete the research and finish up.
There are two to three McCown enclaves of McCown properties in Chester
County plus some in the adjoining county. People in Chester claim they
are different unrelated families. I hope my project will prove out the
answer when I can finish it. If we had participants in the DNA program
from each of the different McCown families in SC it would sure help
backing up whatever my study will find.

Because of very strong Maguire, McGuire, McManus results at 25, 37 and 67
markers, I have also joined the Colonial Maguire Surname Group and McManus
Surname Group while retaining my McCown Surname Group. At 67 markers there
are 9 matches with Maguire family related surnames all of which are common
in Fermanagh and Cavan Counties in Ulster. According to Barry McCain these
Maguire/McManus matches are certainly in the ruling Maguire family line. So
far, there are no McCown matches beyond 12 markers, one 12/12 match is a
known cousin who has only been tested to 12 markers as of today and two
11/12 matches, tested to 37 markers but who differ wildly from my results at
25 and 37 markers.
As near as I can tell from the ysearch McCown page, www.ysearch.org/, and
from reading every one of the recent McCown Family History Rollcall e-mails,
it looks like the Francis and John McCown descendents together with the
descendents of George McCown of the six brothers have very close Y-DNA
matches. Then there are the rest of us which appear to be from non-related
McCown lines. This would include my line together with Sam McCown, another
line for Bob McCown, one for Nancy McCowan O'Bannon and one for Thomas Ashby
McCown. That would make a minimum of five apparently non-related McCown
lines out of 21 McCowns tested to date. Is a puzzlement.

Kathy,
Somewhere in a recent e-mail you said you had someone test for you. I don’t know if you told me who it was or not, but wanted to ask, is he a member of the McCown Surname group on Family Tree DNA, and which one it is. Also, wondered if the results were on the Ulster Heritage DNA results page too?
Thanks! Leonard
