Every marker in the image above is a direct relation based on my mitochondrial dna. Be nice to folks they could literally be a part of you! :)

Your direct maternal lineage is the line that follows your mother’s maternal ancestry. This line consists entirely of women, although both men and women have their mother’s mtDNA. This means that fathers do not pass on their mtDNA to their children. Your mtDNA can trace your mother, her mother, her mother’s mother, and so forth, and offers a clear path from you to a known, or likely, direct maternal ancestor.

Sincerely,
Phil
