DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Abigail 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 Abigail:
Her father is more likely to be Sargent-474 and his wife Naomi Stanwood-25. She is not shown as a daughter to Sargent-188 based on sources within the profile.
Sargent-1094 and Sargent-95 appear to represent the same person because: Same parents (will set dups for merge), both born in MA, same spouse and marriage year (off by 1 year due to calendar change). Spouse profile dups set for merge. Same death year and place. Please merge.
