Chester Craig Bassett (1941 - 1986)

The paternal relationship between Chester Craig Bassett and his son RCB is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant SPB.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between SPB and other confirmed descendants of Gideon Decamp/Elizabeth Dougal is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since SPB descends from Gideon Decamp/Elizabeth Dougal through Chester Craig Bassett and his son RCB, the presence of significant shared DNA between SPB and other known descendants of Gideon Decamp/Elizabeth Dougal validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Gideon Decamp/Elizabeth Dougal through Chester Craig Bassett to RCB, and ultimately to SPB, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
