DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Ann 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 Ann:
According to Magazine William & Mary College Quarterly History Magazine by William & Mary College, printed 1894, Chapter on: McGehee Family of Virginia p. 285 & 286. Joseph Turman who married Mary Mackgehee was the son of Richard Truman and Mary Woodson; Book Website: Website: https://archive.org/details/williammarycolle2519will/page/284
Smith-106657 and Smith-4055 appear to represent the same person because: These are both married to Richard Woodson, one had a daughter Agnes Woodson, who married Joseph Morton, the other Elizabeth Woodson who married Thomas Morton. Elizabeth and Agnes are sisters, daughters of Richard Woodson and Anne Smith Woodson, per pp. 35 - 36 of Historical genealogy of the Woodsons and their connections
From the book "Historical genealogy of the Woodsons and their connections" compiled by Henry Morton Woodson published by the author 1915 p. 25, "...Anne Smith daughter of Obadiah Smith." (This doesn't rule out that she could have had a brother named Obadiah, but it's very unlikely he would be called Obadiah Smith Sr.)
Smith-57498 and Smith-4055 are not ready to be merged because: There's some question about Ann Smith Woodson's parents. Obadiah Smith's birthdate is only 6 years prior to Ann's on one of the profiles, and elsewhere Obadiah Smith Sr. is listed as Ann's half-brother instead of her father.
Smith-57498 and Smith-4055 appear to represent the same person because: The married name, birth and death locations are the same, and the dates -- which look like estimates -- are relatively close. Could these be the same person?
