DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Phoebe 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 Phoebe:

I don't think these are the same Phoebe Hatfields, Rosetta. According to my research, they are related, however, in a half first cousin kinship relationship. I will have to look into it, but I do recall seeing the Ferrell last name among the tribe; perhaps this is the confusion- perhaps this Phoebe Hatfield married a Varney, and the other older Phoebe Hatfield possibly married into the Ferrells- I say this because I definitely believe they are connected to families in that area- Thompsons, Varney, Romans, Hatfields and Musick are all allied families of Pike, Kentucky many from Russell County, Virginia who were tight knit moon shining type of families and easy to confuse, so let's double check this prior to merging. I will try and add to Phoebe Hatfield-259 as I see the sources could use some improvement.
