My father, Jacob Conner Wolfe, was a direct descendant of John Wolf of Jefferson County through his son Daniel Wolfe. I had his Y-DNA tested in April, 2012 through Family Tree DNA using a 37 marker test. He only had one match on the 37 marker test with a genetic distance of two. I contacted his match but we did not share a common ancestor. His genetic match had not traced their Wolf ancestry beyond the late 1800's. This is where I have a request of anyone with Wolf ancestry reading this blog. Does anyone know of a direct male descendant of John Wolf through one of his other sons: John, Henry, Jacob, and Samuel? It would be helpful to have Y-DNA testing done by another direct male descendant of John Wolf.
I had autosomal DNA testing done through Ancestry.com which matches you with cousins sharing your DNA. So far, the only matches I have with any Wolf cousins are through John Wolf's son Daniel. Hopefully, descendants of John Wolf's other children will have their DNA tested. This can be either male or female descendants.
If anyone is interested, I will be glad to share my father's Y-DNA results with you. Unfortunately, my father died on 3 June 2014 so privacy is no longer an issue.
