DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Mary 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 Mary:
Thurber-29 and Gerrish-296 appear to represent the same person because: The Mary Thurber who married Samuel Wood in 1871 was a widow. She was born Mary Bartlett Gerrish, and married first Jefferson Thurber. These are the same women, and Gerrish is the correct LNAB.
