43636 - Eugene Royace Presley, Jr.

Haplogroup:

Haplogroup I - Not Yet Assigned to a Lineage

Lineage:

  • Holden Presley born about 1825 and died about 1890; married Alice Powell (Alice Browning at death) on October 22, 1878 in Conecuh County, Alabama, three days after getting out of jail in Milton, Florida convicted of adultry by a jury of his peers (court records verified) and over 8 months after Charles Edward Presley was born.

    Holden's father was Floyd Presley and some DNA samples from his line have confirmed that Holden is from the German line of the Johannes Valentine Preslar family. My DNA matches Norway Andersons and not German Presley. In the Milton area in 1880 US Santa Rosa County, Florida census there were 6 Anderson families living closeby and they were Arch'd Anderson; Lewis Anderson (Norway); William E. Anderson (North Carolina); Martin Anderson (Norway); John Anderson (Sweden); William Anderson (Sweden). I believe the genetic donor to match my Anderson DNA profile is one of these. Notice, in 1845 the town of Anderson was closeby.
  • Charles Edward Presley born February 10, 1878 Milton, Florida and died May 3, 1962 at 300 S. Alcaniz Street, Pensacola, Florida; married Elizabeth "Bessie" Pate on November 21, 1898 Sullivan Station, Alabama; she born November 26, 1872 and died May 10, 1916 and is buried in Sullivan Cemetery in Nokomis, Alabama outside Atmore. She was the daughter of Isaiah Pate.

    My paper genealogy trail says on Charles Edward Presley's death certificate that Holden Presley and Alice Powell were his father and mother. My DNA does not match this lineage since Holden's DNA is of German origin. This is verified by the DNA matches in the Presley-Pressley group.
  • Harry David Presley born October 19, 1898 and died June 24, 1977 in Atmore, Alabama. He lived most of his married life at 118 North "B" Street, Pensacola, Florida. He married Mary Genevieve Neill; she was born February 7, 1896 and died July 5, 1959. Her father was from France and grandmother and grandfather was a Michael Burns and Mary Ann Coleman Burns from Galway, Ireland, at St. Michaels Catholic Church in Pensacola, Florida on February 7, 1921.
  • Eugene R. Presley
