DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Elizabeth 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 Elizabeth:
Gilbert-3602 and Gilbert-6162 do not represent the same person because: They are not the same people. For starters one is a woman and one is a man, and they don't have the same parents.
Gilbert-6132 and Gilbert-3603 appear to represent the same person because: I haven't had a chance to enter their children's names, but these two ladies are the same person. "Eliza's" sister, Lurina/Lurainey is my g-g -grandmother. Eliza also has 2 brothers.
