The paternal relationship between Edward James Carr and his DNA tested daughter MEC is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between MEC and other confirmed descendants of
Charles Edgar Carr/
Hannah Delora Sharp is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since MEC descends from Charles Edgar Carr/Hannah Delora Sharp through Edward James Carr, the presence of significant shared DNA between MEC and other known descendants of Charles Edgar Carr/Hannah Delora Sharp validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Charles Edgar Carr/Hannah Delora Sharp through Edward James Carr to MEC, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
