DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Elizabeth 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 Elizabeth:
So, a merge can't be undone (as far as I know) so now our choices are:
A) Edit to match and merge with Elizabeth Swaim who married Christopher Nation.
Or
B) Edit and merge with Elizabeth Nation, who I believe married Marmaduke Vickery.
Either way, neither the Ancestry.com people search or the Find-a-Grave Memorial listed are viable sources. Both are filled with errors and unsourced speculations. The purpose of sourcing is to find reliable info that leads to the true conclusions. Official records: Birth Certificates, Death Certificates, Marriage Licenses, Land Records, and Court Documents are ideal Primary Sources. Books published by reputable authors, news paper clippings, and church records are often good Secondary Sources. User submitted data from websites are just clues to help lead you to further research.
Colleen, Thanks for the additional info which matches much of what I have on file. However, the on going question of an Elizbeth Swaim marrying Marmaduke has been debated for as long as I have been working this line 1980's, and my research while living in the Virginia, North Carolina areas has shown no proof to change what I have.

The more I look into it, the stronger is my belief that Marmaduke Vickery married Elizabeth Nations, sister of Christopher Nations who married Elizabeth Swaim.
Nation-196 and Nation-258 appear to represent the same person because: Same spouse and son. Please note that dates are indicated as uncertain. Difference can be noted in the biography until a source can be added.
A) Edit to match and merge with Elizabeth Swaim who married Christopher Nation.
