The paternal relationship between John W Beardsley and his son
Charles S Beardsley is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant RW.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between RW and other confirmed descendants of
Andrew White/
Amy Palmer is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since RW descends from Andrew White/Amy Palmer through John W Beardsley and his son Charles S Beardsley, the presence of significant shared DNA between RW and other known descendants of Andrew White/Amy Palmer validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Andrew White/Amy Palmer through John W Beardsley to Charles S Beardsley, and ultimately to RW, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
