    The maternal relationship between Julia Eliza Van Wagenen and her son George Emery Epperson is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DE.

    The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DE and other confirmed descendants of David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DE descends from David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost through Julia Eliza Van Wagenen and her son George Emery Epperson, the presence of significant shared DNA between DE and other known descendants of David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost validates the generational links along this maternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost through Julia Eliza Van Wagenen to George Emery Epperson, and ultimately to DE, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
