Quarterman DNA Project

mtDNA

Anyone descended by a female line from a female relative in Liberty County or other relevant location during the periods of interest would be appropriate, regardless of where they live now.

Q: Especially after the Civil War, it looks like men began marrying more wives from outside the county. And once you have a non-Liberty female ancestor, you've broken the line of mtDNA.

A: But the same can be said for yDNA and patrilineal descent. There are many people who consider themselves Midway descendants and Quarterman relatives who do not have an unbroken male line of descent.
