Re: Joseph, “Job, Jobe,” Daniel and Elizabeth Calaway DNA match to William of Cedar Creek

Janine, Do you have the Felix Motlow papers that were compiled on the Daniel history for the pension application you gave me the link to? I may have missed them included there. If not I have more information.?
Much of the information I found in research on William and Argent ?is not fresh in my mind… but I have census records that link John to Avis and Argent. I could snap a photo or direct you to my tree. I am not great at the computer so things that seem easy or obvious to some at not for me. I learn every day. Also I have been in communication with Amy Daniel who is in possession of the family bible giving the names of Argent and William Daniels children. I connected their Daniel line with her information. I suggested the DNA testing of her husband Richard Daniel who descends from Berry William Daniel. I don’t know if they have submitted DNA as of yet. Seem to be a direct line to William Daniel who married Argent.?
These are publicly posted on Andestry.

This is a video with step-by-step instructions for downloading your raw DNA from Ancestry & uploading it to Gedmatch. If you have any trouble with the process, let me know.?

So John Daniel was still alive in 1830? I'll have to go back to the census records & look. I'm curious, how do we know that John was married to someone named Avis? I've never seen any documentation for that.
Kevin, I really like WikiTree, & also FamilySearch.org, for the most part. WikiTree requires documentation for anything that is put on there, so I like that. It makes me feel as if they really strive for accuracy. I have seen some mistakes on FamilySearch, but I do like searching there for documentation that I can't find on Ancestry. I really like Ancestry for the DNA matches. When I first started working on my family tree, I knew who all four of my grandparents were & about half of my great grandparents. That was it. With the help of DNA, I've been able to figure out a lot more of my tree. And sometimes when I have a match on Gedmatch, I can find their tree on Ancestry, which helps me figure things out. Both Gedmatch & FamilySearchDNA are great for being able to pinpoint where on which chromosomes my DNA matches & I match, which has also helped me to figure out some of my family tree.
