  • Cecelia E. Carpenter (31/10/1880 - 28/04/1962)
    The maternal relationship between Cecelia E. Carpenter and her daughter Daisy Virginia Burchfield is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant CP.

    The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between CP and other confirmed descendants of John Carpenter/Elizabeth Jane Higginbottom is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CP descends from John Carpenter/Elizabeth Jane Higginbottom through Cecelia E. Carpenter and her daughter Daisy Virginia Burchfield, the presence of significant shared DNA between CP and other known descendants of John Carpenter/Elizabeth Jane Higginbottom validates the generational links along this maternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple John Carpenter/Elizabeth Jane Higginbottom through Cecelia E. Carpenter to Daisy Virginia Burchfield, and ultimately to CP, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
