Colonial Families of Maryland: Bound and Determined to Succeed
By Robert William Barnes
Genforum shows the parents of "Dinah Tracey as Teague Tracey (b. est 1670) and Mary James (b. ca 1672 in Anne Arundel Co MD)"
Additionally, "George Hitchcock, Dinah's stepfather and 2nd husband to Mary James, was one of her sureties for the Adminstrative Bond for John Wheeler's estate. Dinah received 1/3 of John Wheeler's estate, as did each of the two children that Dinah had by John Wheeler before his death. As I mentioned earlier, John Tracey was one of the witnesses of the will of Dinah's son, Solomon Cross. The Tracey family also intermarried into the Merryman family. Joseph Cross, whom I believe was the brother of John Cross who married Dinah Tracey, married Elizabeth Merryman."

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Dinah 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 Dinah:
Wheeler-5224 and Wheeler-6225 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same husband. Confirmation of the birth dates but these are the same person. Dinah actually has several profiles on wikitree; a lot of confusion with Wheeler/Lane/Cross/Teague last names.
Confirming her parents and maiden name is Teague; Wheeler was first marriage; John Cross was 2nd husband.
She should be merged in these two profiles, and then with the other duplicates.
Tracey-390 and Tracy-160 appear to represent the same person because: the system did not recognize it to be a merge due to two different spellings of last name...please merge and reference the spellings...THANKS!
Suggest her husbands be merged.
