The maternal relationship between Anna Mary Fowler and her daughter ML is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant KA.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between KA and other confirmed descendants of David Asbury Fowler/Mariah Anne York is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since KA descends from David Asbury Fowler/Mariah Anne York through Anna Mary Fowler and her daughter ML, the presence of significant shared DNA between KA and other known descendants of David Asbury Fowler/Mariah Anne York validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple David Asbury Fowler/Mariah Anne York through Anna Mary Fowler to ML, and ultimately to KA, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
