DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Abigail 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 Abigail:
In the bio is the explanation that Thomas changed his last name to just Randolph and his children followed that example so I think the married name is fine but I'm going to add Fitz Randolph as another last name so she is more searchable. Good point, David.
