B28 Nathan Hoar b1762 Massachusetts

We start this study page to support Galiena's deep autosomal study of this line. In particular, due to her significant find of an https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/199269?availability=Family%20History%20Library" class="wiki wikinew text-danger tips">original, handwritten transcription of this family from the mid-1800's] in the ((NEHGR Corbin Manuscript)) that places here Milton Woodville / Hoar with Nathan Hoar and his family. The later generated, typewritten summary of this church record transcription had missed out on many of Nathan and Lucys' children. Likely because the record spanned a page break. Most importantly, the handwritten document shows a son Milton Hoar: Galiena's ancestor. A hope is to use autosomal testing to verify this more complete list of children for the family and possibly find one or more male descendants in the patriline to Nathan Hoar (both down from Milton and otherwise) that can yDNA test to confirm there link to B00 Charles Hoare. (In a 25 June 2022 email, Galiena reported that the last male descendant from Milton Woodville passed away in 1951 and is buried in Minnesota. He had no children.)

See the B00 Charles Hoare group for how Nathan is related into that line. The table of descendants here starts with Nathan and Lucy.

A key reason for bringing in this intermediate study page is to introduce the surname Woodville / Woodworth. Who we now know belongs to son Milton Hoar, his wife Lucy Hoar nee Colton, and their children. They went through a court process to legally change their surname. This may help explain the many Wood surname matches in yDNA to the B00 Charles Hoare line as well. In particular, maybe other children of Nathan and Lucy also had a surname change. Some new clues to start digging around with to explain the yDNA matching. Other surnames changed from Hoar in that document are Hale,. Homer, Hobart, and Hudson. With Homer being the largest family by far. Our one Hobart surname tester descended down a different line from Leonard Hoar (grandfather of Nathan).
Another key find by Galiena is documentation that Milton went to Monroe, Maine along with William D Hoar in 1827. We know that is where Nathan died many years later. Work of Galiena is possibly tying more of these new found siblings together. Especially key is that Roz's Rootsweb DB had Nathan and Lucy, Milton and Fanny, and William all as separate, isolated lines (no parents for Milton and William; not those sons for Nathan and Lucy). Unfortunately, since restoring Rootsweb earlier this year (2019), Ancestry really screwed over the content by trying to make all entries a One-World tree and thus made it impossible to find and manage the content. So we will be referring to, and have links to, our mirror of Roz's seminal Hoar's and Horr's of North America work that is now hosted here in the H600 Project.
To further help, here is a table of the Nathan and Lucy family in summary form. The first column is Roz's findingswhen she was working with Galiena to try and discover if Nathan and Lucy were the parents of Milton. The second to document the more recently found hand written record found by Galiena showing the family. Roz worked with Galiena in the 2000's.
