Note that this sample, which now defines group A2, differs from the others at the rapidly mutating marker DYS 458

Sample #014 USA: William Holder & Mary Ann Hardin?? >> Daniel Holder & Nancy Standeford Orange Co. NC >> William Henderson Holder & Nancy Hauser, Stokes/Forsyth Co. NC >> Daniel P. Holder, Indiana

Sample #017 USA: William P. Holder (ca. 1815 NC - ca. 1860 Polk Co. AR) > William Clayton Holder (1848 NC - 1923 Lynn Co. TX) > Ben Rogers Holder (1889-1968 TX)

Sample #020 USA: William B. Holder, born 1863 (location unk), married Ollie Jones in Alabama and later moved to Wichita Falls, TX. This sample matches the A1 group over 25 markers; we also have data for markers 26-37 for this sample.

The paper trail for samples #013, #014. #017 and #020 need to be explored further back, to see if a connection can be made to Thomas and Susannah.

Sample #027 USA: Elisha Holder > Shadrack Holder b. 1776 in Bertie Co. NC and Minnie Dunning > Thomas Holder b. 1807 KY and Lucinda Hildrith > Peter H. Holder b. 1832 KY and Henrietta White > Peter O. Holder b. 1877 Bollinger Co. MO. This sample differs from the other group A samples at DYS 447.

Sample #034 USA: Newman Jackson Holder (1818-1896), born NC, died Texas, married Martha Ann Moss in Cherokee Co. NC 1847; in Hood Co. TX 1870s-1880s, moved to Donley Co. TX late 1880s. Like sample 013, this one has a connection to Cherokee Co. NC, and it seems likely that William P. Holder and Newman Jackson Holder are brothers, probably sons of William Holder and Elizabeth Jackson.

The A group belongs to Haplogroup R1b1b2.
