The paternal relationship between Caius Marius Eaton and his son
James Eaton is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant TB.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between TB and other confirmed descendants of
James Eaton/
Mary Ann Brocklebank is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since TB descends from James Eaton/Mary Ann Brocklebank through Caius Marius Eaton and his son James Eaton, the presence of significant shared DNA between TB and other known descendants of James Eaton/Mary Ann Brocklebank validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple James Eaton/Mary Ann Brocklebank through Caius Marius Eaton to James Eaton, and ultimately to TB, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
