This has been a very busy summer and I am somewhat slow getting going on the Pincombe-Pinkham Newsletter. It will be mid September before it appears unfortunately. I have a few thoughts to pursue and a couple of items that I have neglected to follow up on.
My DNA study on the Pincombe family has actually been quite significant. Over time I have collected DNA matches on nearly every chromosome between my siblings and myself. The yDNA for the John Pincombe line has been well established. John Pincombe was baptized 13 Feb 1728 at Bishops Nympton son of John Pincombe and Grace Manning (they married 20 Mar 1725 at Bishops Nympton). He married Mary Charlie/Charley 8 Nov 1767 at Bishops Nympton and they had six children with yDNA results from two different sons being available to look at (a descendant of son William and a descendant of son Robert). I do not tend to look at the mitochondrial line as the surname changes each generation and not a lot of information can be gleaned on the Pincombe family itself from such a survey of results.
