  DNA TRIANGULATION

  
  

• Notes

  It is theory that John is an illegitimate child of John Norris who lived 11 miles from Reading in Yattenden, Berkshire, England. This theory is because : 1) John, b. 1484 was the oldest son of Edward who was the heir of Yattenden Castle in the years this son John could have been born from about 1500-1517. 2) Both Richard and possible brother John can be traced forward in time via baptismal and/or marriage records on freereg.org.uk to two different cousin lines that have many Norris triangulations from 5 cM's and higher. 3) Richard's daughter was Mary, b. 1580 in Bedfordshire. He was baptized in Bedfordshire without any father given. This suggests he could have been illegitimate. Mary is the Mary Norris of the Mayflower that is matching John Norris of Mass. in many DNA triangulations on Gedmatch. 4) John's wife, Catherine Nicholes, has her maiden name carried down through the first name of the son, John's son Andrew.
