Mary Jane Carpenter (07/01/1872 - 21/02/1928)

The maternal relationship between Mary Jane Carpenter and her daughter Mable Leona Thatcher is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant CM.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between CM and other confirmed descendants of Edward Carpenter is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CM descends from Edward Carpenter through Mary Jane Carpenter and her daughter Mable Leona Thatcher, the presence of significant shared DNA between CM and other known descendants of Edward Carpenter validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Edward Carpenter through Mary Jane Carpenter to Mable Leona Thatcher, and ultimately to CM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
