Annabelle Carner (18/06/1871 - 25/09/1944)

The maternal relationship between Annabelle Carner and her daughter Zelma Irene Fortney is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DG.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DG and other confirmed descendants of John Albertson/Elizabeth Hunter is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DG descends from John Albertson/Elizabeth Hunter through Annabelle Carner and her daughter Zelma Irene Fortney, the presence of significant shared DNA between DG and other known descendants of John Albertson/Elizabeth Hunter validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple John Albertson/Elizabeth Hunter through Annabelle Carner to Zelma Irene Fortney, and ultimately to DG, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
