Alice's Place: An eclectic mix (by Alice Marie Beard)
Description: Volume II of The Hufford Family History
DNA worked its magic again! It’s Saturday night. Late Thursday night a new match popped for me at ancestryDOTcom: Female. Share of 26 cM of DNA across three segments. Eighteen shared DNA matches, and I could ID everyone of them, but I could not ID her. Of the shared matches, ALL are HUFFORD descendants. For one, the connection is back at Abraham HUFFORD (b. 1788) and Elizabeth PLANK (b. 1792). For three, the connection is one generation closer, at Andrew HUFFORD (b. 1827) and Sarah Catherine CRIPE (b. 1833)
I reached out via ancestryDOTcom’s message service.
She knew her mother, but she did not know her father. It could be determine easily that our connection is on her father’s side. She said she was born and raised in Haida Gwaii, British Columbia. I had never heard of the place. I told her that I could help her narrow her search if she would allow me to see her DNA matches, and she let me see matches.
