Sources
Note that the basis for Sarah Knott being the wife of William Hunt, and mother of Thomas Hunt, is Dornan's Adventurers of Purse and Person. Anyone claiming someone else as the wife/ mother needs to have a better source than Dornan.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Sarah 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 Sarah:
Knott-1073 and Knott-1106 appear to represent the same person because: Both of these profiles are for a Sarah Knott, daughter of William Knott. This proposed merger will eliminate the duplication. Once the merger is complete, I would also like add Sarah Knott as the spouse of William Hunt-10888 as a replacement for Sarah Simmons-7983.
