The paternal relationship between Burley Wade Hampton and his DNA tested son BH is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between BH and other confirmed descendants of
John Hampton/
Nancy Elizabeth Bertha Betty Mary Adams is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since BH descends from John Hampton/Nancy Elizabeth Bertha Betty Mary Adams through Burley Wade Hampton, the presence of significant shared DNA between BH and other known descendants of John Hampton/Nancy Elizabeth Bertha Betty Mary Adams validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple John Hampton/Nancy Elizabeth Bertha Betty Mary Adams through Burley Wade Hampton to BH, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
