DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Susanna 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 Susanna:
I believe the Susanna Frizzell that married Moses VanSant is a different Susanna Frizzell than who married Lovelace Gardner. I have sources that Lovelace married Susanna Frizzell and it was a latter date than the Susanna / Moses family. Also at Susanna Frizzell's death it would be unlikely to list one's last name from a first marriage. Thus I believe Susanna VanSant is a different person then the Susanna Frizzell married to Lovelace Gardner. I do agree with Ruth (Buckingham) and George Frizzell being Susanna's parents and Nathaniel Gardner being Susanna and Lovelace's son. Regards Munch21128
