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