DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Hephzibah 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 Hephzibah:
Skinner-3048 and Skinner-256 appear to represent the same person because: Duplicate with only minor differences in spelling of first name. Please review and approve merge. Spouses will also have to be merged.
It is very unlikely that Hepzibah b. 1711 in Norton Mass. married John Rockwell b. 1673 in Hartford, Connecticut. I believe this must be an error. and will disconnect. Objections?
