The paternal relationship between Edward Jr Byram and his daughter
Tabitha Dorcas Byram is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JPS.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JPS and other confirmed descendants of
Benjamin Sr Coe/
Rachel Prudden is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JPS descends from Benjamin Sr Coe/Rachel Prudden through Edward Jr Byram and his daughter Tabitha Dorcas Byram, the presence of significant shared DNA between JPS and other known descendants of Benjamin Sr Coe/Rachel Prudden validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Benjamin Sr Coe/Rachel Prudden through Edward Jr Byram to Tabitha Dorcas Byram, and ultimately to JPS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
