The Henry H. Miller & Lydia Shoup DNA Cluster - Update

We are grateful to the researchers that made their research available to others. We are also grateful to the folks that have collaborated with us over the last year. This DNA cluster update would not be possible without them. 

In early January 2016 we identified that Julie was a descendant of Henry H. Miller and Lydia Shoup. To view the original post visit the article The Henry H. Miller & Lydia Shoup DNA Cluster.

Over the last year Julie and her Miller cousins have been linked to other descendants of Henry H. Miller and Lydia Shoup. To date Julie's closest Miller DNA match is a descendant of Henry H. Miller and Lydia Shoup's son - Henry Washington Miller.

Henry Washington Miller is the father of at least sixteen known children. These new DNA matches have allowed us to eliminate some of Henry Washington Miller's children from our search. The amount of DNA shared between Julie and the descendants eliminates them as direct line ancestors.
