Yep, understand; the attachment does NOT show Joseph’s line.? I know it is difficult to keep in mind, what I was showing was the seven DNA lines that DO match to Leigh.? From there, we try to infer the best we can which of the Yates lines Joseph and therefore Leigh might descend from…
?
My inference is that Joseph and Leigh, based on the unmasked frequency of 7 out of 20, may very well descend from Tattersall-Wells-Warfield-Guiney-Tapp line.? Just a guidepost, not proof.

Ron,
I don't see Joseph Yates in your attachment. I found him by browsing the full one-name tree, but stopped there.
I saw the SAR application there. I had run into it earlier today in working on Joseph's tree. The information is sketchy, and one cannot depend on accuracy. Many SAR lineages have notes attached that they have to be proven to be accepted, even though they did accept them at one time. I just went to sar.org and looked. Well, I was a registrar for a local chapter for 2 years, and they keep hiding things under secret shells, and then moving the shells around constantly. I couldn't even see where to type in the patriot number any more. Perhaps they took it completely off line. They want to be as unhelpful as they can. I actually stopped paying dues and have nothing to do with them any more over a submission I made for a friend, which was REJECTED, (my 15th after 14 successful!) after another chapter member was granted a supplemental to that patriot only months before! My friend was out $150 for what was a "sure thing" only months earlier. Very poor judgment!
Anyway, I just went over to DAR.org, which is much better, was much more accurate, at least in the past, and reliably the same so you can find things easily. I found our Joseph Yates immediately.
A trick I learned is that when you get to a list of apps that you can purchase, just click on one as if you are going to purchase it, and then a link will appear "lineage". Click on it and you will see the lineage. They do that so you aren't surprised should you purchase it. And then you can back out and not continue with the purchase.
Attached are some results I just got for Joseph Yates. It has his DAR number A129441. Clicking on his number gives a list of lineages accepted for him. And then I clicked on one of the lineages and screen captured the lineage given for it. I see there is a NARA roll number which proves his service. I'll have a look in Fold3 if I remember.

Leigh will we along shortly to help us get on the right track, her records seem to maintain that there was a marriage but understand the conflict.? We need to confirm that Leigh was able to acquire the records created by “Joseph Yates And Some Of His Descendants” By A. S. Salley, Jr. ??They were in the Adlai Robin Yates collection at Clemson.? If she did not get them, I will to determine if we can harvest any details.
For now, as a guidepost, we know there is a DNA connection between the Yates lines:

Seven of Leigh’s Yates DNA matches appear to descend from Tattersall-Wells-Warfield-Guiney-Tapp in this list just below:

Ron,
Joseph Yates' lineage from hints seems to stop at a possible father also a Joseph Yates. And attached is a note from just a few days ago that John Rogers doesn't belong in the picture. (I've put him in and taken him out a couple of times (just for "completeness"). I think I'll keep him out, for now anyway!).
I think DNA is our only way forward. Your autosomal results indicate the line is related to us (if I understand your messages correctly). If the Y-DNA can be traced down to living males, I wonder if their Y-DNA will match ours? (Not sure if that has been done, but I think not). Does Leigh know of any living Yates males who could Y-DNA test?

Leigh, John Yates and I are very interested in this person's older lineage.? Any suggestions would be appreciated...? Ron
