DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Betsey 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 Betsey:
Buffington-248 and Buffington-242 are not ready to be merged because: Buffington-248 is shown on FS as born 2 years prior to parents' marriage and not included in the group baptism of the 1st 4 children born after the marriage, so it isn't clear whether she belongs to this family or is simply mirrored from FS without a date quotation.
Buffington-248 and Buffington-242 appear to represent the same person because: 4 siblings were baptized together, apparently all those born from 1734 to 1740. The sources are included in Buffington-557, which is also in proposed merge.
Buffington-557 and Buffington-242 appear to represent the same person because: As 4 siblings were baptized together, the birth is clearly earlier. As she married in 1752, a decade or more before her siblings, the birth date from findagrave is believable, implying she was the first.
likely duplicate of Buffington-248 and Buffington-242, which assumes birth shortly before baptism. With that assumption, she can't be connected to a sourced marriage or children. The birth date of 1634 is unsourced, but fits with dates of her and parents' Elizabeth (Gold) Buffington James Buffington marriage. The baptism VR matches those parents who are on the duplicate profiles.
On the VR, siblings Bette, Hannah, James, and Mary were baptized together, so it tells us only that those 4 were born prior to that date. The sources have her as Bette, Betty, Betsey, and mother as Eliz
