Archibald P Tolbert (1876 - 1965)

The paternal relationship between Archibald P Tolbert and his son Willard Paul Tolbert is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant AK.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between AK and other confirmed descendants of WT/Emily Curtis is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since AK descends from WT/Emily Curtis through Archibald P Tolbert and his son Willard Paul Tolbert, the presence of significant shared DNA between AK and other known descendants of WT/Emily Curtis validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple WT/Emily Curtis through Archibald P Tolbert to Willard Paul Tolbert, and ultimately to AK, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
