Floyd Kessinger ( - 1927)

The paternal relationship between Floyd Kessinger and his daughter Cora Kessinger is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant KS.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between KS and other confirmed descendants of William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since KS descends from William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman through Floyd Kessinger and his daughter Cora Kessinger, the presence of significant shared DNA between KS and other known descendants of William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple William M Sr Bean/Rachel Wiseman through Floyd Kessinger to Cora Kessinger, and ultimately to KS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
