The maternal relationship between Mary Elizabeth Uber and her son
James Hutchinson Carey is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant SS.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between SS and other confirmed descendants of
John Harvey Uber, Jr. is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since SS descends from John Harvey Uber, Jr. through Mary Elizabeth Uber and her son James Hutchinson Carey, the presence of significant shared DNA between SS and other known descendants of John Harvey Uber, Jr. validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA John Harvey Uber, Jr. through Mary Elizabeth Uber to James Hutchinson Carey, and ultimately to SS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
