She argues that these projects rely too narrowly on Y-DNA paternal-line testing, which traces only one direct male lineage. This limited approach, she contends, has led to \u003cstrong\u003efalse lineage determinations\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003edisconnection of authentic family branches\u003c\/strong\u003e, erasing rightful descendants from the historical record.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinley highlights that historical realities-such as adoptions, non-paternal events, and incomplete documentation-make Y-DNA alone an unreliable tool for comprehensive genealogical verification. By focusing exclusively on a single paternal marker, these projects have denied recognition to descendants with well-documented genealogical, historical, and familial ties to the Lees of Virginia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo address these injustices, Finley developed an \u003cstrong\u003eautosomal linear triangulation method\u003c\/strong\u003e. This method uses \u003cstrong\u003eautosomal DNA\u003c\/strong\u003e-inherited from both parents-combined with \u003cstrong\u003ehistorical records\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eoral family histories\u003c\/strong\u003e to identify shared genetic segments across multiple related individuals. By triangulating DNA matches among both recognized and disputed descendants, she was able to \u003cstrong\u003econfirm genetic relationships\u003c\/strong\u003e to the Lees of Virginia that Y-DNA testing had failed to detect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer work has \u003cstrong\u003erestored rightful connections\u003c\/strong\u003e to many descendants who had been wrongly excluded, creating a more inclusive and evidence-based framework for lineage confirmation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinley's findings are documented in her \u003cstrong\u003e\"Lees of Virginia Lost Lineages\"\u003c\/strong\u003e series, which exposes the flaws in past genealogical conclusions and reconnects lost branches of the family tree.
