International Lindsay DNA Group 1"Lindsays of Northern Ireland & Scotland" The defining term "Lindsays of Northern Ireland & Scotland" is used in an attempt to establish a basic geography for the composite DNA Group 1. John William Lindsay is the Group Administrator for DNA Group 1 and can be reached via e-mail by clicking on John William Lindsay. John is a very knowledgeable researcher for this grouping of Lindsays/Lindseys/Lindesays and should be your first contact for questions pertaining to DNA Group 1 genealogy and in the determination of the Most Recent Common Ancestor (MRCA). The DNA Group 1 is currently composed of thirty-six (36) participants. Click on DNA Data Spreadsheet to view the DNA marker values for the current participants of this grouping. ************************************* It has been proven, via the traditional paper trail, that Julius Gray Lindsay (1864-1934, Guilford County, NC Lindsays) is the Most Recent Common Ancestor (MRCA) for participants L0026 and L0085. The origin of their common ancestor, Robert Lindsay (ca 1740-1801) has not yet been proven but there are several possibilities that are evolving. One of these possibilities evolves from the fact that the DNA results have proven a mutual descent of the Guilford County, NC Lindsays with the DNA Group 1 participants who claim descent from Thomas Lindsay of Kingswark. This possibility is further supported by the circumstantial evidence that suggest that the Guilford County, NC Lindsays are descended from one of the Virginia Lindsay lineages who are believed to be descended from Capt. Bernard Lindsay (1603-ca 1646, descendant of Thomas Lindsay of Kingswark) who married Rachel Lindsay (1612-1645, daughter of Sir Jerome Lindsay of Annatland). Based on the facts and the circumstantial evidence, the most likely common ancestor for the Guilford County, NC Lindsays and the Lindesays of Loughry (County Tyrone, Northern Ireland) is Thomas Lindsay of Kingswark (b. ?, d. ca July 1607 Leith, Scotland). If you have information, accompanied by the appropriate citations, that demonstrate how any one of these Lindsay/Lindsey lineages in DNA Group 1 are connected, please contact John William Lindsay, Group Administrator, DNA Group 1. ************************************************************** Reference Notes
