Alberta Louise Hatcher (23/01/1915 - 21/06/1987)

The maternal relationship between Alberta Louise Hatcher and her daughter Barbara Joyce Meeker is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant KC.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between KC and other confirmed descendants of Wheeler Lewis/Abiah Leavitt is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since KC descends from Wheeler Lewis/Abiah Leavitt through Alberta Louise Hatcher and her daughter Barbara Joyce Meeker, the presence of significant shared DNA between KC and other known descendants of Wheeler Lewis/Abiah Leavitt validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Wheeler Lewis/Abiah Leavitt through Alberta Louise Hatcher to Barbara Joyce Meeker, and ultimately to KC, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
