On Family Tree DNA I have one person who is always at the top of my match lists, James Daniels. We both have taken the Big-Y 700 marker test, and we have the same exact haplogroup, and in fact we are the only two known members in this haplogroup. I've tried to reach out by email for years, but I've never heard back. On his profile, he claims to have descended from Robert DeAnyers, 1172, and claims to be associated with the surname "Daniell" from Warwick County Virginia. My Y-DNA is Is M-269, part of R1B1.?

I have three questions
1) Has anyone made contact with this James Daniels before? If so, can you speak to any connection with Brittain/Britton Daniel b1814?
2) Do you know anything about the Y-DNA of the "Daniell" s from Warwick County Virginia? Are these Daniels M-269 / R1B1?
3) How would James Daniels be related to Robert DeAnyers 1172? Are his male descendents?M-269 / R1B1?

Kinds regards
David Daniel (Brittain/Britton Daniel b1814)

James' kit# is 342705. He joined in 2014 and last signed in in July 2023, so is hopefully still with us. Have you tried to email him?

With regard to the ancestry back to Robert D'Anyers, this unsupported assignment is made in the genealogy for multiple unrelated Daniel lines. It has been a popular assignment for compilers for decades. As far as I am aware, no one can prove descent from this man using primary records.

Yes this line is R1b/M269. My favorite tool for freely tracing the ancestry of terminal SNPs is
but it has gone haywire with what is probably gyrations to adhere to European Union privacy regulations. I could not get it to work at all with FireFox, but did finally choke a result out using Chromium. YMMV.

Let me know if you need assistance.

I would like to remove these some how if possible ? Many thanks Will

Hi Will,

The entire thread if possible thank you

I think that I can delete your contribution to the thread, but hesitate to delete the entire thread, since there are multiple contributors to the thread and your part is a bit off topic relating to the rest of the thread. Would that work?
