The maternal relationship between Maud Archer and her son
Edmund Lee Frappier is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant EN.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between EN and other confirmed descendants of
Joshua BIRD/
Mary Ann THOMAZIN is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since EN descends from Joshua BIRD/Mary Ann THOMAZIN through Maud Archer and her son Edmund Lee Frappier, the presence of significant shared DNA between EN and other known descendants of Joshua BIRD/Mary Ann THOMAZIN validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Joshua BIRD/Mary Ann THOMAZIN through Maud Archer to Edmund Lee Frappier, and ultimately to EN, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
