I have participated in the DNA testing. So far, unlike another testing site, which I and my father have also participated in, this site doesn't allow me to search by surname in my matches.
So, have any of you, related to the Laytons, participated in DNA testing? I'm a descendant of Kinsey Layton, previously mentioned on this board. I am not a match with 2 descendants, so far, of the "William Layton" that some have listed as Kinsey's father. I'm looking for other Laytons that are not known to be a descendant of Kinsey Layton (George, Greenberry, or Nancy) to compare DNA with me. My goal is to find/verify Kinsey Layton's ancestors.
My father, a Layton, has the haplogroup of R1b1b2a1a1d1a.
Also, if you are, or know of, a male Layton with this haplogroup, then I'd be interested in knowing that too. If your male, with the surname of Layton, doesn't have this haplogroup, I think it rules him out as having a common Layton ancestor with my father.
Thanks!
Shirley
