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