I don't know much about William Brock Skaggs and that's unfortunate because he was the common ancestor for two testers in the Skaggs Y-DNA project. He was a grandson of the Rev. James "Longman" Skaggs of the Long Hunter group of Skaggs, born about 1796. He married Nancy Warren about 1815 and lived out his life in Green County, Kentucky dying sometime after the 1860 census. William Brock Skaggs had the R-BY114454 haplogroup in the Skaggs genetic lineage, shown below:
The genealogy for R-BY114454 (based on our two participating testers) is below:
+ Nancy Warren
2 Elijah Skaggs (1824-1863)
+ Harriet Skaggs
3 Albert Skaggs (1848-1924)
+ Mary Nathan Warren
4 Elmer Elliott Skaggs (1890-1975)
+ Lillie Crystal LeGrande

If you're a Skaggs whose direct ancestor was William Brock Skaggs, then you're R-BY114454 haplogroup in the Skaggs DNA lineage. If you're a Skaggs and interested in participating in the Skaggs Y-DNA project just go to my profile and click the email link to send me a message.
