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:
Vernon-1137 and Vernon-344 appear to represent the same person because: These 2 appear the same being Vernon-1137 the correct one! There is not much info on Vernon-344 but being the smaller number 1137 will have to be merged into it & then change the info to Vernon-1137. These Vernons are a mess, many duplicates of all the children /families. Please help, thanks, Jan
