Goals

  • Establish the “genetic profile” for this branch of COMBS.
  • Identify the “lineage genetic profile” of the ancestry for this line.
  • Specifically, identify the parentage of Sarah Ann Combs based on comparison of genetic profiles.
  • Note: Before the Civil War, GEN 5 Sarah Ann COMBS was married to John J. Webb and had five children. He died in a POW camp in Ohio, and Sarah never re-married, yet she continued to have 7 more children whose names were listed as Webb, including my g-grandmother, Rhoda (Webb) Tolbert. I have not found anything that tells me who their father(s) might have been. Further records need research.
