The paternal relationship between James Heber Moulton and his DNA tested daughter MM is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between MM and other confirmed descendants of
John Murray Murdoch/
Ann Steele is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since MM descends from John Murray Murdoch/Ann Steele through James Heber Moulton, the presence of significant shared DNA between MM and other known descendants of John Murray Murdoch/Ann Steele validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple John Murray Murdoch/Ann Steele through James Heber Moulton to MM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
