Knox-DNA Kit #142557 [Group 13; Haplogroup R1b1b2] [Sponsor Terry L. Knox]
Most Distant Ancestor for Kit #142557:
Thomas Knox was born March 29, 1810 in PA, and
spent most of his life in the Claysville, PA and Washington County, PA area.
He is buried in the Claysville, PA cemetery. According to the 1880 US, Census
his father was born in PA and his mother was born in Maryland.
I believe George Knox is his father. George was born Aug 24, 1780 in
Washington, PA, and is believed to have died in PA. He is buried in the South
Buffalo Cemetery, Claysville, PA. A fellow researcher found Church records in
the Washington County Library from the South Buffalo Presbyterian Church shows
George Knox and his wife Elizabeth were the parents of Thomas Knox, and
Thomas's wife was named Esther which also matches my records.
