DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with James by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with James:
I believe that John Anders Rowland (May 1861-13 April 1931) is the son of James. James show up in the 1860 Polk Douglas County, MO census. He is shown as "Roland," aged 32, NC, with his wife Vicey, aged 32, b TN, and children William, 9 TN, Nancy, 7 MP, Isham 3, MO, Sara, infant MO and as living near Martin Case and Thomas Case. He has real estate worth $300, and personal property worth $500, and cannot read or write. Lovica "Rolen" shows up as a head of household in 1870 in Douglas County, MO in 1870.
He show up again in Buchanan, Douglas County MO in 1870, lving next door to William Case.
