DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Anne 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 Anne:
Henry dit Robert-9 and Henry-4 appear to represent the same person because: same name, same parents, birth within 1 year, same death. Henry_dit_Robert-9 should be merged into Henry-4 because Henry is the correct LNAB.
