Citation Text: 1) Original -E-mail:- 21Jul2019: Comments: Hi Brian, It was recommended I join this site to help verify likely biological ancestry with a Dowling family. See my question here: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/874349/any-known-y-dna-test-takers-for-robert-dowling-line; Are you aware of any male ancestors of that Robert Dowling (b 1730) who have taken a Y-DNA test? Thanks, Mike Wells. Mike Wells. email address.
2) Original -E-mail:- 23Jul2019: Short answer is through atDNA triangulation on Ancestry.com and Y-111 test on FTDNA.
- I initially discovered that my Y-DNA STRs do not match the corresponding "Wells" line on the FTDNA "Wells" surname project. My (now deceased) paternal grandfather matches my STRs. On FTDNA, my Y-DNA STRs match many "Downing/Downen/Downey" men with GD 5-6 (late 17th century). SNP is downstream of R-M222 (Irish).
- A paternal great uncle and I have several atDNA matches with my 3rd paternal great-grandmother Rebecca Jane Alexander's line (Alexander), within expected cM range.
- A paternal aunt and I atDNA-match a descendant of Benjamin Wells, in expected cM range for the half-cousin.
- Several Wells relatives and I atDNA-match several descendants of James Dowling - within expected cM range.
- James Dowling was the same age as Rebecca Jane Alexander and they lived in close proximity.
I have not found any James Dowling direct male descendants willing to take a Y DNA test (nor have I found any who have taken an atDNA test). Mike
Reply: Hi Mike, Looking at the WikiTree. Just in passing, Henry A Wells appears to marry Emily J Clarkson on 4 Nov 1896 in Camden, Camden, New Jersey, USA (FamilySearch has a transcript).
Can you explain the history for me please as I cannot see all the records needed at the moment. Specifically, how Henry Alexander Wells is the son of James Dowling and not Benjamin Morrison Wells.
Thanks, Brian Thomas Dowling (1955-)

Her husband the late Benjamin Wells, was for upwards of sixty years ticket agent and station master at Elkton, and was widely known through his long rail-road service.
She leaves four children- Henry A Wells, of Buffalo, N.Y., connected with the Associated Press; Mrs. William Alrich, of Elkton; Benjamin Wells, adams Express Agent at Elkton; Charles G Wells, assistant station agent at Elkton.
The funeral services were held from her late home yesterday, Friday afternoon at three o'clock. The remains were laid to rest in the Elkton cemetery."
