Note: Sherwood STANDLEY 1775 – 1825 DNA MATCH James STANLEY 1785 – 1875 DNA MATCH Some DNA markers have shown themselves to be more volatile then others and the population geneticists have created a second model to account for these ‘aberrations’. That model is called the Infinite allele model. For markers that fall into this category, despite the fact that two people could be separated by 2 (or 3) mutations, the scientific assumption is that the change took place in a single generation (between a father and a son) and therefore it is treated as a single step, despite the fact that more then one ‘point’ separates two samples. Participant William Stanley is descended from Sherwood Stanley in Greene County, GA.  The 25/25 marker test result with 2-distance alleles indicates 99% surety of relationship with a common ancestor about 7 generations ago.  As researcher Deborah Nowers (descended from George & Bethia Standley) said, " I know about assumptions--this time I think Jonathan is mine. There are just too many connectiions for it to be random. Of course if the DNA shows a match all the legwork still needs to be done."
