RLP 272: Proving an Ancestor with DNA: Benjamin Cox

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about Diana's research on Mary Clemsy (Cline) Weatherford. Clemsy is a brick wall ancestor. We don't know who her parents were, and record are challenging to come by due to record loss in Izard County, Arkansas. However, Diana shares how she found substitute records at the state and federal level that helped locate a hypothesized father for Clemsy - John C. Cline. FAN club research also helped her find two possible siblings. Join us as we discuss this research in progress.
