Reference:
17. Ibid. John Laurence Dunham participated in DNA analysis. He knew his family was from New Brunswick New Jersey, but there were members of the Singletary/alias Dunham line living in New Brunswick also. The DNA analysis showed that he was a descendant of Deacon John Dunham of Plymouth. This knowledge allowed us to search for his line back to Deacon John Dunham. Much of this was done through census records.
