Hi Bill.Thanks for your reply.Going through ysearch.org, I was able to compare my 67 marker test with others within a range of 0-5 mutation and there are many who can be considered a match.They all link to the Morton's, Turners, whitakers and Woodson's.Now, whether we link to Thomas Morton is dependent on the person who listed Thomas as his furthermost ancestor.Luckily, the documentation for that line exists (whereas, with Marshall, there is very few actual documents to link). So, I feel this is a lot more than I had to begin with.Of course, it doesn't pop up with the completed family tree, but it does give one something to proceed with.
There are only a few Morton's who match, but in the Morton DNA group, there are abt 20 participants and of those 20, most of them link to the Morton's out of England.Of the 20, there appear to be two distinct lines.
