 ===Early Family===
 The 1897 ''The History and Genealogy of the Knowltons of England and America''; Charles Henry Wright Stocking, D.D.; the Knickerbocker Press indicated John Knowlton (father of Benjamin Knowlton ''see below'' was the brother of William Knowlton and they were the sons of (Capt.) William Knowlton & Ann Elizabeth Smith. However, Y-DNA testing ''see below'' indicates where Y-DNA descendants of John and William fall under totally different haplogroups, and cannot be related within thousands of years. In addition, Y-DNA testing has shown where some individuals who believed they were paternal line descendants of John Knowlton (based on the 1897 genealogy) were not genetically/biologically descended from John in a straight paternal line. This is a prime example of why Y-DNA testing is so vital to genealogical research.
