The paternal relationship between Avery Johnson and his daughter
Maude Margaret Johnson is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DC.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DC and other confirmed descendants of
Joseph Asa Johnson/
Sarah Lucy Tobey is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DC descends from Joseph Asa Johnson/Sarah Lucy Tobey through Avery Johnson and his daughter Maude Margaret Johnson, the presence of significant shared DNA between DC and other known descendants of Joseph Asa Johnson/Sarah Lucy Tobey validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Joseph Asa Johnson/Sarah Lucy Tobey through Avery Johnson to Maude Margaret Johnson, and ultimately to DC, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
