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