    The paternal relationship between George Keith Stewart and his son Kim Taylor Stewart 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 David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CS descends from David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost through George Keith Stewart and his son Kim Taylor Stewart, the presence of significant shared DNA between CS and other known descendants of David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost validates the generational links along this paternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost through George Keith Stewart to Kim Taylor Stewart, and ultimately to CS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
