| The lines of William (1780) and Isom (1779) are not shown in this drawing
as there are no groups to compare them to at this time. |
| |
| The spreadsheet at the top shows the DNA data. The pedigree drawing
directly above this shows an anaylsis of that data using the submitted pedigree
information. The branch where each mutation occurred and the approximate
time frame within which it occurred is shown with the
orange rectangles.
The mutations each line exhibits are shown in the
green rectangles.
The Legend at the bottom tells which marker changed, its new value and the approximate
time it changed. |
| The groups in yellow
boxes are dead-end lines. They are placed near the line the data
implies they intersect. |

| Note: |
- There are many Cloud lines -- not all of them are descended from William
Cloud born 1621 in Calne, England. Expect to see more distinct Cloud family
lines as our Project grows.
- When looking for intersections of dead-end lines with other lines -- remember
that there may be other lines which aren't shown because we have no DNA data
on them or there may be additional lines we don't know about.
- Mutation A occurred with grandson William
at his birth in 1691 -- because the lines of his three children carry it and
the line of his brother Mordecai does not. (The children's lines did not
get it independently -- they got it from their father who either had the mutation
or got it from his father. Since Mordecai's line doesn't have it, we know
his brother William did not get if from his father and so the mutation
A occurred at his birth.)
- Mutation B appears in the line of grandson
Mordecai born 1691 and in the disconnected line of Jesse born 1805. His
brother doesn't have it, so it occurred either with him at his birth in 1691
or in one of his children. We can know it occurred prior to 1805 since
Jesse's line has it. More tests from distant cousins from the branch of
Mordecai can tell us where the mutation occurred. Jesse's ancestor came
from the line with this mutation and knowing when it occurred will narrow their
search.
- The line of Joseph (1710) carries mutation C
only, but the lines of son Robert (1656) and that of James (1797) have the additional
mutation D.
- C must have occurred either with Robert
or later, but prior to the birth of Joseph in 1710.
- D occurred prior to the birth of James
in 1797. It did not occur with son Robert since the line of Joseph doesn't
have it.
- If C occurred with son Robert in 1656,
then all of his sons carried it. Any of them could have experienced the
mutation at D. The line where mutation
D occurred is where the researchers of James
(1797) want to concentrate their research.
- We need more test subjects for the line of Robert to determine where
D occurred.
- Mutation E appears in the line of great
grandson William (1729) and of Jeremiah (1784). This tells us it occurred
either with the birth of William in 1729 or later, but prior to the birth of
Jeremiah in 1784.
- One would expect both kits 33648 and 43861 to have either "A" alone or both "A & E". Is there an error in one of their pedigrees?.
- The mutations -- F &
G -- shown on the spreadsheet for the line
of William (1780) could have occurred either before or at William's birth, since
the lines of two sons carry them. They and the other mutations appear to
be definitive for this line but more information from parallel lines is needed.
- The line of Isom (1779) has too many differences with the other lines for
it to be related to any of them.
We need to find other Cloud lines to participate in the study so we can answer
the questions raised by the lines of William (1780) and Isom (1779)
