DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Sarah by comparing test results with other carriers of her ancestors' 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 Sarah:
Sarah is more likely the daughter of George Tillman 1682-1756 (https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Tillman-1983) and Mary Avery. His will lists a Sarah Tillman Hunt as daughter. The George Tillman and Mary House that are currently linked are most likely the grandparents.
