Autosomal DNA Connections

Triangulation Effort is underway. Seeking a triangulation group. The first two legs of a triangulation to Alexander Underwood and Jane Harris is established. Descendants Reba Duckett Mahaney T528972 and Larry Stephenson share three statistically significant segments of autosomal DNA:

1- An 8.8 cM segment on chromosome 1, from 242,450,461 to 245,683,659

2- A 30.3 cM segment on chromosome 5, from 26,329,557 to 64,561,227

3- An 18 cM segment on chromosome 5, from 99,058,528 to 121,046,449

Seeking another cousin with a distance of third cousin or further to complete this triangulation. Note that Reba's siblings and children also match to Larry.

If you are a descendant of Alexander Underwood and Jane Harry, please consider adding your GEDmatch kit number for triangulation study. Thank you.
