Note-
I had thought since my lineage was a direct White line to the Mayflower and since I have DNA cousins on this line that this lineage was linked to the Mayflower, but now the Mayflower society has told a DNA cousin on my Alexander White Sr. line that Jonathan White was not his DNA father (even if he was a grandson of Peregrine White by marriage). All of the White surnamed male descendants on the Peregrine White line should have all the same Y DNA (father's father's father's DNA) and they DON'T.

I have only proved my own DNA cousins back to Alexander White Sr., so the DNA could have taken some sort of U-turn at Alexander White Sr.'s father, supposedly Jonathan White (by marriage). But possibly the DNA testing doesn't go much past that far also. I have Bennett DNA cousins on this Ursula Bennett line and so far cannot connect the dots to the DNA of it.

A Wagner surname cousin of mine on the Silas Babbitt-Elizabeth White line (from the Alexander White Sr. line) has told me that she applied at the Mayflower society and they told her that Alexander White Sr. is not considered to have been a DNA son of Jonathan White (although he may have been a son my marriage).

I suspect that Alexander White Sr's true DNA father is somewhere connected to this line..

They say 1 in 6 children is raised by a father that is not their DNA father, so every 6 people in anyone's tree could be a place where there is a DNA U-turn of the tree...

Yes, not a Mayflower line..just somehow may be linked to the DNA parentage of Alexander White Sr. whose DNA father was not Jonathan White of the Mayflower line..

Someone has asked me to include this note..for historical purposes..
Peregrine White was the 2nd baby born on the Mayflower. Oceanus Hopkins was born on the voyage and Peregrine was the first Mayflower baby born "in America" after they'd reached Massachusetts when they were moored in the harbor near Provincetown before they crossed the bay to Plymouth.

Of course my Alexander White Sr.'s DNA ancestors are only on this Peregrine White line by marriage. He may have been adopted or something else that led to him having a different father than Jonathan White (Peregrine's son).
