DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Mary 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 Mary:
Unknown-198645 and Burt-1 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate. Unknown-198645 states that Mary Burt had an illidit affair with Samuel Wright Jr which resulted in Remembrance. This data is repeated in the William Brooks genealogy. So, Mary's surname wasn't so unknown.
Burt-1 and Burt-1586 appear to represent the same person because: After looking at Mary Burt-1 profile I saw the biography was wrong - it was that of her sister, Mercy who was married to Judah Wight.
I updated profile to show both sisters bio, (citing "Descendants of Henry Burt" compiled by DUNHAM - WILCOX - TROTT - KIRK email [email address removed] also verified by Tributaries: Genealogies of the Brooks Families of New England by compiled by Christopher Hapgood Brooks) and linked Mercy Burt to Henry's children.
Mary Burt-1586, (please compare profiles) and Mary Brooks Burt are the same person. This is not the Mary Burt Brooks-1859 mentioned in the comments with birth dates are 20 years different. They are not mother and daughter. Thank you for reviewing this merge.
