Anthony McManus (1936 - 2010)
The paternal relationship between Anthony McManus and his DNA tested son SM is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between SM and other confirmed descendants of BM/AS is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since SM descends from BM/AS through Anthony McManus, the presence of significant shared DNA between SM and other known descendants of BM/AS validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple BM/AS through Anthony McManus to SM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
