The proposed relationship of Autumn O'Neal 'Bud' Manary as the father of
Carrol Autumn 'Red' Manary and
Mildred Elaine Manary is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.
Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 1st cousin, once removed relationship between JO (a descendant of the Mildred Elaine Manary ancestral line) and LM (a descendant of the Carrol Autumn 'Red' Manary ancestral line) with 481.02 cM of shared DNA across 20 HIR segments.
This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
