A female or male descendant of this strictly unbroken maternal line is needed to take full mitochondrial DNA test from Family TreeDNA. (Unfortunately, autosomal DNA tests cannot currently be used to go as far back as the dawn of the seventeenth century. Please, do not take autosomal DNA tests for this maternal line.)
Objective: Compare the mitochondrial DNA results through Hannah Franklin's daughters and her other sister's maternal lines to verify the relationship between them

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Hannah 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 Hannah:
