The paternal relationship between Ambrose Goulette and his daughter
Rosa Goulette is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant LAD.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between LAD and other confirmed descendants of
Pierre Patenaude/
Catherine Brunet is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since LAD descends from Pierre Patenaude/Catherine Brunet through Ambrose Goulette and his daughter Rosa Goulette, the presence of significant shared DNA between LAD and other known descendants of Pierre Patenaude/Catherine Brunet validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Pierre Patenaude/Catherine Brunet through Ambrose Goulette to Rosa Goulette, and ultimately to LAD, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
