It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Elizabeth 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 Elizabeth:
Bryant-18953 and Bryant-77 are not ready to be merged because: Need to verify all children. Joshua David Elkins NOT listed as a child and needs to be there in order for me to accept a merger.
Bryant-77 and Bryant-11543 appear to represent the same person because: Bryant-11543 was added in error since Bryant-77 already existed. Appear to be same person.
