DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Jane 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 Jane:
Hello, do you know the source for Current Last Name as McFerrin? Her FindAGrave record shows nothing like this name. And birth place in York Co, PA?? Again, what source, please? Thanks from Jane
I have removed McFerrin from this record. I believe that in the process of merging duplicate records, a 2nd marriage to William McFerrin was added to this profile, but that is incorrect. There was a different Jane Laughlin who married William McFerrin.
There are several records showing that Jane Laughlin's parents were married in Hanover, PA in 1762, and they did not move into Virginia until probably after the Revolutionary War. That is the source for York County, PA as the birthplace of Jane and her siblings.
Thanks so much! I appreciate your care and concern for accuracy! Pennsylvania makes sense--I must have been looking at birthplaces of her children. Thanks from Jane
I'm still interested in getting access to data on the McGaughey family.
I'm a direct descendant, and I see that Jane has several children with private profiles. Since they were born over 200 years ago, the privacy settings should be open.
Are you the manager of these private profiles? If so, would you please open them?
If not, let me know and we can ask a member of the WikiTree team to open them.
