DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Annie 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 Annie:
It appears they could have met in conjunction w/ St. Paul's School (4th Ave. and 22nd St.), successor to Mulbery St. M.E. Church School, where Bowles was an officer and Annie/Millie was a teacher. They had correspondence with Julia C. Mead, the Place family, the Janes, Purdys, Raymonds, Graydons, Foss, Hyde. Julia may have been Bowles' girlfriend before Millie.
Notable that there is
a Bradstreet in the mix, too. Their correspondence also mentions a "Kate" from time to time, who could be Kate Perego, Bowles' aunt.
