Comments about This Article 
The article from the Center, Texas LIGHT and CHAMPION newspaper, shown
below was supplied to Mattie Dellinger by my cousin, Winnie Savage Smith.
She was one of the two participants in the mtDNA test that helped prove
that our g-g-grandmother, Nancy Scott was Nancy Kirkland Scott and NOT
Nancy Perkins Scott.

The appearance of a male in this test is possible because males
do receive the mother's mtDNA, they just cannot pass it on.

The note, shown in the following photo, was written about 1990, for me by Nora TRUITT RISINGER PATE, daughter of Mary Annie Scott Truitt, one of the girls in the Southern Hospitality story.
