John William Wilcox (1903 - 1982)

The paternal relationship between John William Wilcox and his daughter Marion Adeline Wilcox is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JS.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JS and other confirmed descendants of Pierre Patenaude/Catherine Brunet is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JS descends from Pierre Patenaude/Catherine Brunet through John William Wilcox and his daughter Marion Adeline Wilcox, the presence of significant shared DNA between JS and other known descendants of Pierre Patenaude/Catherine Brunet validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Pierre Patenaude/Catherine Brunet through John William Wilcox to Marion Adeline Wilcox, and ultimately to JS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
