Wetmore DNA Testing and Possible Relationship to John Whitmore of Stamford

For almost 200 years genealogists have been discussing and debating the possible relationships among three New England patriarchs, Thomas Whittemoe of Malden, Maaa., Thomas Wetmore of Middletown, Conn. and Francis Whitmore of Cambridge, Mass. Claims have also been made that any and all of these are connected to John Whitmore of Wethersfield and Stamford.

Y-DNA testing of male line descendants of the first three of these men (no male line descendants of John Whitmore of Stamford are known, unless he was the father of one of these) has proven that there is no close male line relationship. It is possible that John was the father or either Thomas Wetmore of Middletown, or of Francis Whitmore of Cambridge, but not both. John may have been related to Thomas Whittemore of Malden, but if so could not have been the father of either of the other two. Results were published in New England Ancestors in the fall of 2009.[10] Additional testing since then has continued to confirm these results.
