The DNA testing would not be done using Pocahontas' corpse
for a sample.The Bolling DNA project matches the DNA of living Male Bollings.
If the Halbert ancestor was a Female there is a slim chance a maternal DNA test could be generated but it is realtively new and twice as expensive.

I have read that the Halberts Were Welch and Possibly Melungeon that might account for the dark features presumed to be Native American.
