• Cora Virginia Bean (1870 - 1948)
    The maternal relationship between Cora Virginia Bean and her daughter Bessie Lee Fairburn is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant CS.

    The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between CS and other confirmed descendants of William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CS descends from William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman through Cora Virginia Bean and her daughter Bessie Lee Fairburn, the presence of significant shared DNA between CS and other known descendants of William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman validates the generational links along this maternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman through Cora Virginia Bean to Bessie Lee Fairburn, and ultimately to CS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
