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