The maternal relationship between Juanita Tucker and her son MH is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant MH.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between MH and other confirmed descendants of Whitson Pennington/Mary Chapman is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since MH descends from Whitson Pennington/Mary Chapman through Juanita Tucker and her son MH, the presence of significant shared DNA between MH and other known descendants of Whitson Pennington/Mary Chapman validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Whitson Pennington/Mary Chapman through Juanita Tucker to MH, and ultimately to MH, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
