The paternal relationship between Donald Martin Crabtree and his DNA tested daughter CC is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between CC and other confirmed descendants of
James Riddle/
Rhoda King is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CC descends from James Riddle/Rhoda King through Donald Martin Crabtree, the presence of significant shared DNA between CC and other known descendants of James Riddle/Rhoda King validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple James Riddle/Rhoda King through Donald Martin Crabtree to CC, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
