Naomi Reed

The proposed relationship of Naomi Reed as the mother of Eunice Howell and Hester Ann Howell is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a distant cousin relationship between JKH (a descendant of the Eunice Howell ancestral line) and PP (a descendant of the Hester Ann Howell ancestral line) with a shared segment of 46.32 cM across 2 HIR segments.

This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
