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:
I would be grateful if you could please add the evidence for the marriage of 81-year-old Hannah with 60-year-old John Sivil Smith. I am unable to find any original source. And this detailed Geni profile of him (below) specifically states that there is no evidence of any wives other than Jane Wadley: https://www.geni.com/people/John-Smith-Sr/6000000005415728957
Parks-4853 and Park-1917 appear to represent the same person because: Same birthdate and place (1788 Standish). Original christening surname is "Park" Same marriage (John Ennis), same children (eg. Benjamin, Jane, etc.)
Thank you!
