DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Eliza 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 Eliza:
Hale Hensley-1 and Hall-12155 appear to represent the same person because: they share the same birthdate and the same spouse, James B. Hensley. The difference in maiden names (Hall vs. Hale) needs to be rectified.
