Bruce Harmon Lake (26 Feb 1844 - ABT 1910)

The proposed relationship of Bruce Harmon Lake as the father of Lewis Lyle Lake and COL is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a distant cousin relationship between LL2 (a descendant of the Lewis Lyle Lake ancestral line) and CP (a descendant of the COL ancestral line) with a shared segment of 44.59 cM across 2 HIR segments.

This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
