DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Sarah 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 Sarah:
Can someone please explain or expand upon Sarah's name being listed as Sarah Kingman Davis? I have not seen her listed as such in other places, and in fact other wikitree profiles note that there is no evidence that an Anne Kingman was her mother. Please help us untangle all this. Why the middle name "Kingman"?
I see what was going on. Kingman was what some people thought was the maiden name of her mother. Her husband also had a middle name-- the maiden name of his mother. I've seen people use this approach in their personal trees, but it is inaccurate. This may appear elsewhere in this line.
