Analysis and discussion of Stone DNA test results:


Group 1: Henry Stone of Maidsville, Monongalia County, Virginia (now West Virginia) Derived Signature

This is a derived probable DNA signature for Henry Stone using the maximum parsimony method (fewest number of mutations required to explain a change) on group 2. It is possible for unlikely mutation sequences to occur, such as multiple mutations occurring in the same generation and thus obscuring the DNA signature of generations farther back than the one in which the mutation occurred. All methods for deriving DNA signatures are subject to uncertainty, but the maximum parsimony method reduces the possibility that a bias in the test results (many people tested from one branch of the family) unduly influences the derived DNA signature of the most recent common ancestor (MRCA). It is possible for such a bias to occur using the statistical mode method (the value that appears most often in a set of data) for deriving DNA signatures. For much more detailed explanations of the principles of deriving DNA signatures, the maximum parsimony method and the statistical mode method, see the following articles:

Group 2: Henry Stone of Maidsville, Monongalia County, Virginia (now West Virginia) Descendants

The test results of all three Henry Stone descendants match and are the only tests that match each other so far. Because the DNA signature seems to be rather unique, any future matches, even at just the twelve marker level, will seem to end up being closely related.

Group 3: Philipp Stein of Udenkappeln, Palatine, Germany and Berks County, Pennsylvania Descendants

The comparison of this tester with the derived signature of Henry Stone (group 1) shows no close relationship due to the large number of marker differences (29 out of 37). A comparison with a second documented descendant of this line should be done, however, to insure against any undocumented adoptions having taken place. More documented descendants of this line are therefore being sought for testing to verify this result.
