The paternal relationship between Coriel Trombly and his son RT is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DT.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DT and other confirmed descendants of
Jean Louis Patenaude/
Genevieve Lareau is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DT descends from Jean Louis Patenaude/Genevieve Lareau through Coriel Trombly and his son RT, the presence of significant shared DNA between DT and other known descendants of Jean Louis Patenaude/Genevieve Lareau validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Jean Louis Patenaude/Genevieve Lareau through Coriel Trombly to RT, and ultimately to DT, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
