Help me understand DNA testing

Come to the dark side, Ted.....

I... think I'll stay here in the gray twilight side; though the dark side is quite lovely.

Right.

It should be pointed out that in law there is a presumption that a man is the father of his wife's children. Hence, clan chiefships, titles, etc---which are a form of property---are legally inherited by the child of the wife of the previous holder.

They can now do DNA tests, though...

True, but still the presumption at law is that a child is the chold of his mother's husband. It's called the presumption of legitimacy, and it is rebuttable by other evidence. At least that's where things stand in US law, and I think the UK also.
