John Pugh and Mary Jenkins
We are in desperate need of a direct male descendant of this couple.We have uncovered a descrepancy in the genealogy that has been accepted for decades on a branch of the James and Joan (Price) Pugh line.We have three participants in the Pugh Surname DNA Project who descend from James and Joan's son, Thomas Pugh, Sr. and his wife Elizabeth Richardson.All three match in their DNA results.
We have two participants who descend from David and Catherine (Price) Pugh.Their DNA matches but is very differnet from that of our James and Joan participants.James and David have been shown as brothers who married Price sisters.The DNA results indicate that either these two were not brothers or the Thomas Pugh, Sr. who married Elizabeth Richardson was not actually the son of James and Joan.
We need other participants who descend from another of James and Joan (Price) Pugh's sons to unravel the mystery.The descendants of John Pugh and Mary Jenkins are numerous and a direct male descendant could answer this question.This is an extremely important discovery and one that will lead to the correctiion of a long-standing error in the genealogical record.
