DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Hattie 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 Hattie:
Sikes-259 and Sikes-261 appear to represent the same person because: All info is the same except middle name Lorera vs Lorena. I believe Lorera is a transcription error in the original data though.
