Whilst relationships have been confirmed back to this ancestral couple of Joseph Chester and Hannah Austin following auDNA matches between six descendants on three different descendant lines to Veronica Williams, Unnamed DNA Coat, two grandchildren of Charlotte Slater Mills and a grandchild of Victor Chester Thornton, it is still unclear whether the segment on chromosome 16 belongs to Joseph or Hannah.
