DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Hepsibah 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 Hepsibah:
Hepsibah is attached to the wrong Jonathan. They are a generation apart. She should be married to Jonathan son of Stephen, son of Samuel, son of Richard. (I think). The line needs some work. So I'm leaving her here for the moment. Note to myself: See Submit's profile for links to help
