DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Rebecca 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 Rebecca:
Sharp-5499 and Sharp-848 appear to represent the same person because: Same name at birth. Same married name. SaHusband's name the same. Same death year/place.
Sharp-5499 and Sharp-848 are not ready to be merged because: I'm not convinced that these are the same person since the birth date and birth place differ.
