The paternal relationship between Jessie Lewis Hatcher and his son
Wade Bellamy Hatcher is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant BH.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between BH and other confirmed descendants of
James Fulton Hatcher/
Catherine Elizabeth Martin is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since BH descends from James Fulton Hatcher/Catherine Elizabeth Martin through Jessie Lewis Hatcher and his son Wade Bellamy Hatcher, the presence of significant shared DNA between BH and other known descendants of James Fulton Hatcher/Catherine Elizabeth Martin validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple James Fulton Hatcher/Catherine Elizabeth Martin through Jessie Lewis Hatcher to Wade Bellamy Hatcher, and ultimately to BH, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
