About Naomi Sarah Mitchell

GEDCOM Note

Robert Mitchell and Sarah Shipley Mitchell, who also came to Kentucky about the year 1780. While on the journey the Mitchells were attacked by the Indians and Mrs. Mitchell fatally wounded, and their only daughter, Sarah, a child eleven years old, was captured and carried into Michigan, where a squaw saved her life by hiding her behind a big log. Mr. Mitchell mounted his horse, and, accompanied by his friend, General Adair, went in search of his daughter, but was drowned in the Ohio River while attempting to cross it.

Caution: No Abraham Lincoln Ancestry

James Hanks and his wife Lucy Shipley have in the past been believed to be the parents of Nancy Hanks, wife of Thomas Lincoln, and Abraham Lincoln's mother. DNA tests have now proven that such a relationship is impossible and Abraham Lincoln has no Shipley ancestry.

The Fall 2016 issue of American Ancestors confirms through mtDNA studies that Nancy Hanks' father remains unknown. The article specifically disproves the theory of Hanks' ancestry through the Shipley family, because Nancy's mtDNA carries the haplogroup X1c, while the sometimes-assumed Shipley ancestors carry an mtDNA haplogroup of H. Specifically, descendants of both Rachel Shipley, who married Richard Berry, and Naomi Shipley, who married Robert Mitchell, carry the H Haplogroup.
