Elizabeth Jarvis (1816 - 1878)

The proposed relationship of Elizabeth Jarvis as the mother of Clarenda Headley and Marinda Jane Headlee is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a distant cousin relationship between AM (a descendant of the Clarenda Headley ancestral line) and DW (a descendant of the Marinda Jane Headlee ancestral line) with a shared segment of 21.78 cM across 1 HIR segments.

This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
