The maternal relationship between Barbara Ann Brierton and her DNA tested son DRH is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DRH and other confirmed descendants of
Daniel Wilson/
Sarah Ann Combs is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DRH descends from Daniel Wilson/Sarah Ann Combs through Barbara Ann Brierton, the presence of significant shared DNA between DRH and other known descendants of Daniel Wilson/Sarah Ann Combs validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Daniel Wilson/Sarah Ann Combs through Barbara Ann Brierton to DRH, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
