( ESX1793 )
------------
Earliest Known Patriarch:
John Royce of Birch, Essex, England.
Recurring Names:
Edward, Henry
Reconstructed 25-Marker Y-DNA Signature:
Unavailable.
Known Descendants in:
England.
NOTES:
John Royce ran a mill in Birch, Essex. He is probably related to ESX1616 or ESX1732. His birthplace in 1851 is given as 'Tarnsworth' Essex, which I can't locate. In the 1841 census there is an Edward Royce, b. Abt 1766 Essex, operating the mill in Layer de la Haye where John's sons later reside ( this Edward m. Sarah; children John R. Royce b. Abt 1821 Essex, Walter Royce b. Abt 1826 Essex, both no known trace ). Edward is almost certainly a relative but he already has a son named John which would seem to rule him out as father. Note that John Royce is not John Bryckwood Royce of Woodham Walter since they appear in the same census, as does a John Royce of Feering b. Abt 1791, no known issue. John may be John7 Royce born Terling of ESX1616, son of John and Susanna Royce, but that leaves Edward Royce of Layer de la Haye unaccounted for.
John Royce's Y-DNA signature is not known. Direct Y-line descendants of Royces listed below can arrange for a test at reduced cost via the Edmund Rice Association ( http://www.edmund-rice.org/haplotype.htmhttp://www.edmund-rice.org/haplotype.htm ). Having John Royce's haplotype on file would help to establish which Royce lineage he is related to.
