To respond to you question
Bates Family DNA Project does not confirm Gilbert Bates
descent from immigrant John Bates (1598-1666).
DNA from descendant of Gilbert Bates does not match
DNA from descendants of immigrant John Bates (1598-1666).
On the following DNA chart, descendants of John Bates
are coded "JY-VA"
Visit web site for Bates Family of Old Virginia
http://www.bfoov.orghttp://www.bfoov.org
Click on "DNA" and then
Click on "Bates DNA Success Stories" and then
Click on "See Test Results So Far"
Surf down to see EXACT match of Kits 2787 & 2762
Kit 2787 DNA donated by descendant of Gilbert Bates
Kit 2762 DNA donated by descenddant of New England Bates
This EXACT match tends to confirm query appearing in
"The Bates Bulletin" in April 1923 concerning Gilbert
Bates and his family (some inaccuracy noted):
QUERY
"a Bates came from Cape Cod to Tennessee (actually VA)
about 1800 (actually before that date).His wife's
name was Covey (actually Gilbert & Rachel (Covey) Bates),
and their children....were Samuel, James, Isaac, Joseph,
Andrew C., Gilbert, and Catherine.
"A" Isaac Bates was father of Gilbert Bates, but it was
not Isaac Bates,Jr of nearby Franklin Co., VA, who was
descendant of immigrant John Bates (1598-1666)
Easy to confuse the two Bates named Isaac in nearby
counties, but sorted out by DNA test.
