About us
Several generations of descendants of Jonathan J Eden(1814-1892) have suspected his father was James Eden, however, no documentation has verified the connection. It is also suspected that Jonathan J Eden(1814-1892) had brothers and sisters. There has no been paper documentation to link EDENS with EDEN lines, however, there have been two postive DNA matches that link the EDEN line with the EDENS line. Michael Howard Eden(born 1945) had a SNP test to confirm the haplogroup is E3b1. This lineage is found in eastern and northern Africa, the Near East, and Europe, and is estimated to have originated about 23,000 years ago.
