Lucy Johnson (14/07/1781 - 1840)

The proposed relationship of Lucy Johnson as the mother of Thomas Boswell Ratliff and Robert Ratliff is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a distant cousin relationship between SM (a descendant of the Robert Ratliff ancestral line) and CDC (a descendant of the Thomas Boswell Ratliff ancestral line) with a shared segment of 37.64 cM across 2 HIR segments.

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