The maternal relationship between Elsie Maud Uber and her son Dean Melvin Cragg is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant KC.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between KC and other confirmed descendants of Ithiel Dodd is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since KC descends from Ithiel Dodd through Elsie Maud Uber and her son Dean Melvin Cragg, the presence of significant shared DNA between KC and other known descendants of Ithiel Dodd validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Ithiel Dodd through Elsie Maud Uber to Dean Melvin Cragg, and ultimately to KC, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
