DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Bethiah by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.

Do you know where the ‘Begley /Bagley originates? Some profiles record this as Robert’s surname. Some link it to Elizabeth Pearsall with no explanation. There seem to be a lot of inconsistencies with little sources for these people that follow through to Bethiah who married a Newberry ( in my tree).
Appreciate any clarification. Donna
