It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Anne 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 Anne:

Lynch-15481 and Ward-4326 appear to represent the same person because: There is some confusion about Ann's name. My father's research had her as Ann Ward Lynch and yours has it as aka Lynch. I missed this and accidently created a duplicate. If you approve the merger we will go with your original post. Thanks.

Ward-18345 and Ward-4326 appear to represent the same person because: Same parents. Anne was said to be the twin sister of her sister Agatha. Thanks for reviewing.

Ward-15537 and Ward-4326 appear to represent the same person because: Same parents, same husbands (see bio of Ward-15537), similar death details. Discrepancy in birth details preferably resolved with sources. Thanks for reviewing.

This makes no sense. If Ann Ward passed away in 1766, how could she marry Benjamin Dillard in 1782?
