DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Caroline 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 Caroline:
Brickey-274 and Brickey-147 appear to represent the same person because: same death dates, birth date is probably typo, as seen by census ages, etc in Brickey-147.
Her parents are Jared and Nancy not William, who was her father in law when she married William and Elizabeth (Cox) Brickey's son Daniel, her 1st cousin. See sources in Brickey-147
