DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Nancy 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 Nancy:
The sources for Nancy's father, Martin Moore, show that he was one of the first settlers in Nepean Twp., Carleton Co., Upper Canada. He only received his land grant for Clarendon Twp., Pontiac Co., Lower Canada in 1826. It is this timeline that leads me to believe that his early children were born in Nepean before relocating to Clarendon.
