When comparing the results of the deduced ancestral haplotype of Owen McCabe (just to the first 25 markers), there is a difference of 25 mutation steps, so that there is absolutely no possibility that Owen McCabe and John McCabe could have been brothers, or have any close relationship at all. The g. grandfather of the man who provided the DNA for this kit was George Washington McCabe, born in June 1842, in Ohio, and who had sons Charles McCabe, Lloyd McCabe, and George Alvin McCabe, the latter of whom (George, born in Illinois, grandfather of the kit provider) was born in July 1878 in Illinois (in the 1900 census was in the military in the Philippine Islands) and married Ida in 1934 in Hot Springs, ND. 1775).
