The paternal relationship between John Mount and his daughter Bertha Ellen Mount is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant GE.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between GE and other confirmed descendants of Amos Mount/Nancy Kirby is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since GE descends from Amos Mount/Nancy Kirby through John Mount and his daughter Bertha Ellen Mount, the presence of significant shared DNA between GE and other known descendants of Amos Mount/Nancy Kirby validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Amos Mount/Nancy Kirby through John Mount to Bertha Ellen Mount, and ultimately to GE, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
