It&#39;s a simple matter of any of Patricia&#39;s descendants spitting into a test tube and sending that away to a lab. Costs less than $100, these days. If the profile comes back with Hearst family DNA matched, voila. The Hearsts, themselves, wouldn&#39;t even need to participate actively, provided any Hearst line cousins&#39; profile is housed with the millions at popular genealogy research DNA labs, which is highly likely these days. The company would then provide Patricia&#39;s descendants with a list of surname and familial matches. Direct DNA from The Chief, or his sons&#39; heirs would not be needed, a cousin with Hearst DNA would do, because there really wouldn&#39;t be any reason for Patricia to have Hearst DNA some other way. It would also show if there are matches to Van Cleave DNA, or not, which, in itself, would be telling. DNA matching is becoming increasingly routine, which promises to clear up questions like these, and put uncertainties to rest, long after the principals are gone. Thanks for the entertaining post.
