The following data comes from YDNA testing of Ronald J Cox. For any data entered into this page, living individuals should not be referred to in a directly identifiable way unless they have given permission to appear on this wiki. (This should be the case if they already have a page.)

Wallen/Walden

The closest and most promising match of all comes from a set of lines that don't even have the same surname. All of these matches suggest a single common Cox ancestor. Possible scenarios include infidelity, premarital sex, early marriage followed by divorce and remarriage, or adoption. This connection appears to be at or just a little older than each line's oldest identified ancestor.

Line Dist. Marker 37 Dist. Marker 25 Dist. Marker 12 Most Distant Ancestor
A 1 1 0 George Washington Walden/Wallen(Campbell Co TN?)
B 2 2 0 Evan Walden, b. 1776 and d. 1852
C 2 2 No datum Evan Walden b.1776 TN
D No datum No datum 0 Evan Walden b.1776 TN

A family tree is available for line B which shows (most-distant to least-distant):

Walden Family Line
Evan Walden, Born: Tennessee, USA 1776
George Washington Walden, Born: Tennessee, USA Jan. 29, 1811, Died: 1891
Giles Jasper Wallen, Born: Kentucky, USA Jan. 11, 1846, Died: Feb. 17, 1937
Newton Wallen, Born: Wayne, Kentucky, USA Jan. 15, 1870, Died: Paso Robles, San Luis Obispo, California, USA Dec. 16, 1958
Herman Hull Wallen, Born: Tennessee, USA Jun. 19, 1900, Died: Redlands, San Bernardino, California, USA Feb. 28, 1967
Subject B

This chart makes clear that line A is common with the other lines, even though it shows a different most-distant-ancestor.

Since it is not certain how the other lines connect or diverge, it would not seem possible to mix results to get refined statistics on where a common ancestor would be expected to be. Line B will be used for most statistical analysis.
