Daniel DNA project: Looking for participants who descend from Joseph Daniel, Jr. m. Mary "Polly" Garland

 

Greetings. I'm a new member here. My grandmother's maiden name was Daniel. I'm appending here an email I sent to the DANIEL Y-DNA project administrator, in hopes of finding a participant related to "my" clan of Daniels. Thanks for any assistance.

Hi, my name is Ken Norman. My paternal grandmother, Jimmie "Jill" Daniel,? was born in 1916. She was the 7th of 8 children (all daughters) born to Robert Allen Daniel and Flemmie Annis Owen (see attached photos). I am interested to learn if "my" Daniels are represented in your study.
?
The earliest known Daniel ancestor in my line is Joseph Daniel, Jr. (yes, his father is Joseph Daniel, Sr., but I know nothing but his name and his wife's name, Anne). Joseph, Jr. was born about 1784 in Halifax County, NC. I know nothing of his brothers or sisters (if any). About 1807, he married Mary "Polly" Garland (b. about 1783). They had 11 children: 1. Allen (1808-1860); 2. Henry Garland (1811-1894); 3. Lucinda (1812-1880); 4. Sarah (1813-1865); 5. Mary (1815-?); 6. William Asbury (1818-1885) [my ancestor]; 7. Julius (1820-1892); 8. Macy (1823-1863); 9. Frances Delilah (1824-1897); 10. Joseph G. (1827-?); and 11. Martha Collins (1834-1924).
?
I possess an excellent reference book compiled by Freddy Wandell Page (my 1st cousin, once removed) titled "DANIELINE, 1784-1986" (c) 1987. It gives the descendant genealogy of Joseph Daniel, Jr. as far forward as Freddy could ascertain in the pre-internet era. It is quite comprehensive (500 pages). Based on this book, I have developed a list of 24 known male descendants of William Asbury Daniel (Joseph, Jr.'s son) who are likely to be alive, and, thus, potential candidates for inclusion in your study. However, I have not yet contacted any of them. Since my Daniel grandfather had no sons, I'm only distantly related to these 24, and I don't know any of them. I haven't even figured out their contact information. I have yet to research male Daniel descendants from any of Joseph, Jr.'s other four sons to find additional candidates for participation in your study, although, with the aid of Freddy's book, it shouldn't take too much effort.
?
Anyway, I'm keenly interested to know if any of the information I provided on Joseph, Jr. overlaps with any of your current study participants. I searched your website, but I could not find any overlaps, even in later generations. It seems "my" clan of Daniels is completely unknown to you. How exciting it would be to document this large group?

Thanks,
