David M Stonecipher (15 Dec 1848 - 12 Jul 1933)

The proposed relationship of David M Stonecipher as the father of John Wesley Stonecipher and William Stonecipher is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 3rd cousin, once removed relationship between BR (a descendant of the William Stonecipher ancestral line) and DS (a descendant of the John Wesley Stonecipher ancestral line) with a shared segment of 62.46 cM across 3 HIR segments.

This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
