DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Janet 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 Janet:
Bald-218 and Bald-104 appear to represent the same person because: My Jannet Bald has the wrong parents, as her mother's death date is before her birth. She must be the Jannet Bald that is the daughter of Bowmaker, not Hog. Thanks1
Great to see another Fairbairn tree arrive on WikiTree.
However, Jannet, born 1734, cannot be the dtr of a Margaret HOG who is shown in your tree as born 1655, died 1717.
Some trees have her as William BALD and Katherine HOOD.
Another Janet BALD on WikiTree with the same date/place as your Jannet, has parents as William BALD and Elizabeth BOWMAKER

I have no firm information either way.
Thanks.
