DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Velma by comparing test results with other carriers of her ancestors' 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 Velma:
Farnsworth-512 and Farnsworth-387 appear to represent the same person because: the details of Farnsworth-387, Velma E Farnsworth, are protected by you. Given the fact that both have similar names, I believe they may be the same person. Please review and decide if the two need to be merged. Thank you!
