DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Rebecca by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Rebecca:
Howe-1174 and Unknown-331528 appear to represent the same person because: The last name at birth for one is "Unknown." That profile is based on the marriage record of a son. Other sources show that Howe is the correct name. The birthdate of "Unknown" is an estimate and the other one is sourced.
