DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Polly by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
Mitochondrial DNA test-takers in the direct maternal line:
I'm fairly sure this Mary married an Owens and had children by him, then when he died she married John Nelson Griffin, who also had married an Owens, and she died. So when you look at census with John Nelson Griffin, you will see Owen children and Griffin Children. The Owen children are his second wife, this Mary. I will look this up, I have more on it, just haven't gotten it up yet.
Just checked, it's the other way around. Hunt was the first wife of John Nelson. Mary's Owen children, some of them, used the Griffin name but were not adopted.
