We have the profile of Robert Mackay Sr.'s D.N.A.
A real long shot would be if we would find test subjects who have in their female line the D.N.A. of Robert's wife Ann Brown. The only two daughters who had females:
Ann Brown's daughter: Hannah (McKay) HOLLINGSWORTH her daughter Ann Hollingsworth m. Elias BROCK their one daughter Elizabeth BROCK born c1760 I believe lived in the SC. It could be she died without having a daughter. Researcher Algura B. Hedgpeth supplied what little I known about this family. I have lost touch with her.
Ann Brown's daughter: Leah (McKay) married twice last marriage with Jeremiah Odell produced daughter Leah Odell who married ........Whitson, her daughter Margaret Whitson born c1780 VA married 1803 in Shenandoah Co. VA to Wm. Jordan.
My oldest female line Elizabeth BROWN born 1780 Orange Co. NC died in Henderson Co. TN. About the same generation of the above two blood lines. I see no way related to Ann's family of Brown. I have not found the Brown Project Page of Family Tree D.N.A. helpful.
It could be Ann Brown's line is in the bank and we just don't known about it.
