• Paternal relationship is confirmed through Y-chromosome DNA testing. Brent Montgomery, FTDNA kit #169641, and his 6th cousin, James Clyde Montgomery Jr, FTDNA kit #127679, match at a Genetic Distance of 3 on 67 markers thereby confirming their direct paternal lines back to their MRCA John Montgomery. FTDNA indicates that they have a 95% probability of sharing a common ancestor born between 1600 and 1950. The most likely year is 1750, which corresponds with the their common ancestor John Montgomery born about 1711.
• Paternal relationship is confirmed through Y-chromosome DNA testing. James Clyde Montgomery, Jr, FTDNA kit #127679, and his 6th cousin, Keith Montgomery, FTDNA kit #158482, match at a Genetic Distance of 4 on 111 markers thereby confirming their direct paternal lines back to their MRCA John Montgomery (1711-1782). FTDNA indicates that the probability the two share a common ancestor within the last 7 generations is 54.97% and within the last 8 generations is 71.35%. FTDNA indicates their shared Y Haplogroup J-FT18892 was formed when it branched off from the ancestor J-FT22093 and the rest of mankind around 1650 CE. FTDNA indicates the expected date their common ancestor was born was 1692 CE which is within 9 years of the estimated date of birth for John Montgomery.
