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