The maternal relationship between Florence Moody and her DNA tested daughter CT is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between CT and other confirmed descendants of
William Pote/
Dorothy Gatchell is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CT descends from William Pote/Dorothy Gatchell through Florence Moody, the presence of significant shared DNA between CT and other known descendants of William Pote/Dorothy Gatchell validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple William Pote/Dorothy Gatchell through Florence Moody to CT, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
