DNA Connections

It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Lean:
Wassan-1 and Wasson-1559 appear to represent the same person because: I’d like to propose a merge of these Lean “Lee Ann” Wasson Hargis’. She’s my 3rd great grandmother with confirmed spelling as ‘Wasson’. Louisiana Compiled Marriage Index shows Lee Ann Wasson marrying Henry Harrison Hargis on 3 Jan 1867 in Claiborne Parish, LA. Her father, Alberry shows records from Alabama & Louisiana including U.S. General Land Office Records, all showing spelling as Wasson.
