DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Pheba 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 Pheba:
Also descendant of Samuel Marsh/Comfort, their son John/Elizabeth Clark, Jonathan/Mary Jewell Scudder, Pvt. John Marsh/Nancy Searing, Jonathan/Mary Day, John/Catharine Leavell, Henry Clay Marsh/Angeline Stibbs, John Osker Marsh/Neoma Daniels, Cecil Floyd Marsh/Lillian Blankenship, Cecil F Marsh, Jr./LaVonna Jean Turner, to me Cecil F. Marsh, III. Straight male lineage from Samuel.
Marsh-4859 and Marsh-2800 appear to represent the same person because: Same name except possible typo in Phebe, same birth date and place, death date and place, spouse and marriage date. Father needs to be sorted out.
