Laird Burns2nd/George M Burns DNA Connection
I want to pass on some good DNA news.
Another Burns and myself find we are connected by a near perfect (37-1) DNA match. Our Common Ancestor is John Burns1774 SC. grandson of Laird Burns 1st(1716)
The two of us are connected to another Burns with a perfect match. He traces his line through "George M Burns1850 NC/TN" to to Laird Burns2nd.1756, son of Laird Burns 1st.
Since we three are all YDNA connected and get there through different Laird 1st's sons. I believe it shows that George M Burns was the son of Laird 2nd(son of Laird1st).
Since we have descendants of Laird 1st sons John Burns1740s and Leard1756 connected by DNA.
We really need SOMEONE who is a descendat of James Burns1746 PA/SC (son of Laird 1716 Burns) to do a DNA test.
A James Match would pretty well sew up any loose ends about the known son's of Laird Burns 1st(1716)
We are in the Family-Tree Byrnes/Burns DNA project. AFAIK any DNA test will do. Just need to share the results.
Nothing to it.
Later
Dave.
