The proposed relationship of Edward S. Carpenter as the father of HIlda May Carpenter, Nathan Elmer Carpenter, Edward Harrison Carpenter, Sarah Alice Carpenter, Edna Ellen Carpenter and Anna Evalena Carpenter is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between TC (a descendant of the HIlda May Carpenter ancestral line) and KN (a descendant of the Nathan Elmer Carpenter ancestral line) with a shared segment of 106.93 cM across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between LD (a descendant of the HIlda May Carpenter ancestral line) and JG (a descendant of the Edward Harrison Carpenter ancestral line) with a shared segment of 89.37 cM across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between CDC (a descendant of the HIlda May Carpenter ancestral line) and KV (a descendant of the Sarah Alice Carpenter ancestral line) with a shared segment of 118.24 cM across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between LD (a descendant of the HIlda May Carpenter ancestral line) and DR (a descendant of the Edna Ellen Carpenter ancestral line) with a shared segment of 314.97 cM across 14 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 3rd cousin, once removed relationship between TC (a descendant of the HIlda May Carpenter ancestral line) and GK (a descendant of the Anna Evalena Carpenter ancestral line) with a shared segment of 69.70 cM across 5 HIR segments.

It also confirms a distant cousin relationship between JB (a descendant of the Nathan Elmer Carpenter ancestral line) and JG (a descendant of the Edward Harrison Carpenter ancestral line) with a shared segment of 55.20 cM across 2 HIR segments.

It also confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between JC (a descendant of the Edward Harrison Carpenter ancestral line) and KV (a descendant of the Sarah Alice Carpenter ancestral line) with a shared segment of 118.28 cM across 5 HIR segments.

These matches are consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.

Further support for shared ancestry within HIlda May Carpenter, Nathan Elmer Carpenter, Edward Harrison Carpenter, Sarah Alice Carpenter, Edna Ellen Carpenter and Anna Evalena Carpenter is provided by an additional 31 DNA confirmed relationships among other tested descendants tracing back to these lines.
