The maternal relationship between Ethel Dot CLARK and her son JP is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant KH.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between KH and other confirmed descendants of
James HODSON/MF is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since KH descends from James HODSON/MF through Ethel Dot CLARK and her son JP, the presence of significant shared DNA between KH and other known descendants of James HODSON/MF validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple James HODSON/MF through Ethel Dot CLARK to JP, and ultimately to KH, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
