She's my 1st cousin, 7x removed and I'd say she was more likely American Indian & White mixed. I've had my DNA test with MyHeritage and even deep analysis on Gedmatch and I have no African DNA what so ever. There is however American Indian ancestry on my mother's side which Lucy Teasley is an ancestor of.
FYI: If there is a question about changes in the 'found' path, one of the first things to check is to use the free "History Search" tool (https://historylinktools.herokuapp.com/history, project description: https://www.geni.com/projects/HistoryLink/14021), enabling the options to check for Parent Conflicts and 'problem' profiles. Parent Conflicts, in particular, can really lead to confusions.
I noted a number of them in Daniel's ancestors; after resolving them, Geni now shows
"Daniel is Lucy Teasley (Hunt)'s 13th cousin 6 times removed". Steven is still 6th Great grandson.
