Amos Thomas Mount
(ABT 1832 - 25 Jan 1914)
The paternal relationship between Amos Thomas Mount and his son
John Mount is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant GE.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between GE and other confirmed descendants of
Amos Mount/
Nancy Kirby is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since GE descends from Amos Mount/Nancy Kirby through Amos Thomas Mount and his son John Mount, the presence of significant shared DNA between GE and other known descendants of Amos Mount/Nancy Kirby validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Amos Mount/Nancy Kirby through Amos Thomas Mount to John Mount, and ultimately to GE, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
