All the other info

      Charlotte Parkerson (T2b4a) and Tara (T2b4a) are related as Tara is the direct maternal ancestor of Lorna, proven by a mitochondrial DNA test. Lorna's proven maternal ancestral line goes: Lorna (NZ), Alice Henderson nee Andrews (NZ); Honor Andrews nee Rowe (NZ); Emma Rowe nee Austin (Australia to NZ); Emma Gibson/Austin nee Clinton (London to Australia to NZ); Jemima Clinton nee Parker (Essex to London to Australia to NZ) with a further possible generation to Charlotte Parker nee Parkinson (Essex) and an awful lot more women who will obviously remain completely undocumented back from the 1760s to 15000 BC.
I see that Oxford Ancestors has one, and only one, direct match for my mDNA on their database although there are many other Tara descendants, including a lady in Auckland whose forbears lived in Essex and moved to London, just like mine, about the same time. Unfortunately, the direct match one hasn't chosen to share her contact details
With FamilyTreeDNA's upgrade of their mtDNA matching, and an upgrade of my mtDNA test, more matches are becoming apparent (Dec 2012), although with the slow mutation rates for mtDNA, finding the linkages is still needle in universe territory.
One was born abt 1770 in Norfolk (a Rebecca NEAVE).2,4,5
