John Murray Murdoch (28 Dec 1820 - ABT 1910)

The proposed relationship of John Murray Murdoch as the father of Ann Murdoch, Jacobina Wells Osborne Murdoch, Joseph Alexander Murdoch, David Steele Murdock, Millicent Sophia Murdoch, James Crawford Murdock, Brigham Murdoch, Janett Osborne Murdoch and Sarah Jane Murdoch is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between EG (a descendant of the Ann Murdoch ancestral line) and JJ (a descendant of the Jacobina Wells Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) with 168.05 cM of shared DNA across 6 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 3rd cousin, once removed relationship between RG (a descendant of the Ann Murdoch ancestral line) and KKS (a descendant of the Joseph Alexander Murdoch ancestral line) with 122.87 cM of shared DNA across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 3rd cousin, once removed relationship between RG (a descendant of the Ann Murdoch ancestral line) and DBL (a descendant of the David Steele Murdock ancestral line) with 131.04 cM of shared DNA across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a distant cousin relationship between BJM (a descendant of the Millicent Sophia Murdoch ancestral line) and GG (a descendant of the Ann Murdoch ancestral line) with 44.78 cM of shared DNA across 3 HIR segments.

It also confirms a distant cousin relationship between RJM (a descendant of the James Crawford Murdock ancestral line) and GG (a descendant of the Ann Murdoch ancestral line) with 80.53 cM of shared DNA across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 3rd cousin, once removed relationship between RG (a descendant of the Ann Murdoch ancestral line) and RB (a descendant of the Brigham Murdoch ancestral line) with 56.22 cM of shared DNA across 3 HIR segments.

It also confirms a distant cousin relationship between MM (a descendant of the Janett Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) and EC (a descendant of the Jacobina Wells Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) with 54.76 cM of shared DNA across 1 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between MM (a descendant of the Janett Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) and MKL (a descendant of the Joseph Alexander Murdoch ancestral line) with 120.46 cM of shared DNA across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between DBL (a descendant of the David Steele Murdock ancestral line) and JCD (a descendant of the Janett Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) with 101.96 cM of shared DNA across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between MM (a descendant of the Janett Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) and RM (a descendant of the Brigham Murdoch ancestral line) with 97.42 cM of shared DNA across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a distant cousin relationship between ANA (a descendant of the Jacobina Wells Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) and JM (a descendant of the Sarah Jane Murdoch ancestral line) with 21.26 cM of shared DNA across 2 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 3rd cousin, once removed relationship between JWF (a descendant of the David Steele Murdock ancestral line) and JM (a descendant of the Sarah Jane Murdoch ancestral line) with 59.80 cM of shared DNA across 3 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between EC (a descendant of the Jacobina Wells Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) and KM (a descendant of the Joseph Alexander Murdoch ancestral line) with 113.64 cM of shared DNA across 4 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between JJ (a descendant of the Jacobina Wells Osborne Murdoch ancestral line) and JH (a descendant of the Brigham Murdoch ancestral line) with 101.76 cM of shared DNA across 4 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 3rd cousin, once removed relationship between NA (a descendant of the David Steele Murdock ancestral line) and KKS (a descendant of the Joseph Alexander Murdoch ancestral line) with 104.68 cM of shared DNA across 4 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between AJ (a descendant of the Joseph Alexander Murdoch ancestral line) and BJM (a descendant of the Millicent Sophia Murdoch ancestral line) with 154.84 cM of shared DNA across 6 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between TLM (a descendant of the David Steele Murdock ancestral line) and RM (a descendant of the Brigham Murdoch ancestral line) with 162.99 cM of shared DNA across 2 HIR segments.

These matches are consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.

Further support for shared ancestry within the Ann Murdoch, Jacobina Wells Osborne Murdoch, Joseph Alexander Murdoch, David Steele Murdock, Millicent Sophia Murdoch, James Crawford Murdock, Brigham Murdoch, Janett Osborne Murdoch and Sarah Jane Murdoch lines is provided by an additional 141 DNA confirmed relationships among other tested descendants tracing back to these lines.
