The Genealogy Adventures geneticists are currently grappling with the DNA segmentation and sequencing work necessary to confirm the identity of the white Christian family male who is my 4x great grandfather. Whoever he turns out to be, DNA is ultimately pointing towards Thomas "The Immigrant" Christian (born about 1630, United Kingdom, and died in Virginia) as his direct ancestor.
While they are busy beavering away at their monumental task, I'm picking up the gauntlet to determine the identity of Thomas Christian's parents. This is an equally monumental task. Thomas Christian has presented his American descendants with a centuries-old brick wall.
