The Alford was listed in your database as surname of interest for two reasons.
If you find none of this to be applicable or relevant to your research as you know it now, I would simply suggest removing it or putting it to one side if it too far a field to be helpful.

Scenario One 
The first we have already discussed is because of its link to Hedgpeth/Hedgpath (all other spellings considered). While I have never thought that the Alford DNA might be of assistance to carry you to your ultimate research goal, the examination of the Hedgpeth/Hedgpath genealogy once it reaches its Native lines would be here what you want to focus on. Tuscarora tradition records Hedgpath male line as coming from the Dear clan (Elk) . Hedgpath maternal line originating form the Snipe clan (Bird) .
