WHO WAS THE FATHER OF JECONIAH?
I Chronicles 3:16  And the sons of Jehoiakim: Jeconiah his son, Zedekiah his son. (KJV)


Matthew 1:11 And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: (KJV)

Note: Jeconiah and Jechonias are the same person

Same as the last question, basically.  Josias was Jeconiah's grandfather.  Matthew skipped a generation, which is permissible.  Not a contradiction.
