From Randy Seaver at Genea-Musings we have received our Saturday Night Genealogy Fun as follows:

"Hey genealogy buffs - it's Saturday Night again -- time for more Genealogy Fun!!

Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to:

1) List your matrilineal line - your mother, her mother, etc. back to the first identifiable mother. Note: this line is how your mitochondrial DNA was passed to you!

2) Tell us if you have had your mitochondrial DNA tested, and if so, which Haplogroup you are in."

What a nice way to remember my Maternal Line for Mother's Day.

B. Mom

C. Mary Ada Woods, (1904 Paducah, KY - 2002 in Clay County, Arkansas); married Jessie James.

d. Alberta Virginia Neff (1872 Kingport, TN - 1963 West Memphis, AR); Married to James W. Woods.

e. Sarah Catharine Will, (1841 Shenandoah County, VA - 1936 Jackson, Madison County, Tennessee); Married to Samuel Henry Neff.

f. Sarah Riddle/Ruddle/Ruddel, (1798 Virginia - between 1860-1870 Shenandoah County, Virginia); Married 2nd husband, George Will.

g. Elizabeth Bowman,( between 1770-1780 probably VA - 1806 Shenandoah County, Virginia); Married to Isaac Riddle/Ruddle/Ruddel(1759-1833).

h. NOT sure as I haven't done the actual research beyond this point. There are lots of trees on ancestry with different information listed. I haven't seen any PROOF as to her mother. There are two Isaac Ruddles who married ladies by the name of Elizabeth Bowman. This can be confusing in the early records when the names are the same. They are both of the same family of Bowman's and Ruddel/Ruddle's from early Virginia Records.

I have not done any DNA testing.
