On April 30 2019 Family tree sent me another email saying that a third "close" mtDNa relative had been found (Harry Cavyell was the other).
I started looking through my tree and discovered that the new result stemmed from another of Angelique's daughters.
So all three daughters - Nancy anne, Marguerite and Angelique have been represented by the B2a1 analysis.
Strangely, none of Angelique's sisters' descendants have shown up.
Looking through Family Tree DNA results and Ancestry trees, I can't find any genetic correlations to any other Bruyere family member.
I'm now sort of thinking that it wasn't Francoise (1787-1852) who was kidnapped in New Mexico and brought north to Canada...
Maybe it was Angelique.
Maybe she was adopted...
If another mtDNA match shows up that identifies Francoise as Angelique's mother, I'll revise my suspicions.
Francoise had at least four other daughters - perhaps five so there's a fair chance someone will get their mtDNA done.
