DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Marie Madeleine by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
Mitochondrial DNA test-takers in the direct maternal line:
PRDH gives Madeleine's date of birth as about 1712 (based on her burial record). Currently this profile cites the 1721 baptism in Rivière-Ouelle for Marie Madeleine Lebel, daughter of Nicolas Lebel and Marie Francoise Mignot (see this couple here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Lebel-126). There are no further records for the child born in 1721, so it is possible that the wrong mother's name was recorded in the baptism. But I think it's more likely that the baptism record is correct and the Madeleine who married Gabriel Côté was not the child baptized in 1721: the year is pretty off from the age on her burial record, and Marie Francoise Mignot's other children were also baptized in Rivière-Ouelle. On the other hand, several of Madeleine Michaud's children do not have baptism records.
Lebel-192 and Label-12 appear to represent the same person because: The 1709 birth seems more consistent with the rest of her siblings. Same spouse, same person.
