The maternal relationship between LaVonne Myrtle Bell and her DNA tested son RM is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between RM and other confirmed descendants of
Wheeler Lewis/
Abiah Leavitt is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since RM descends from Wheeler Lewis/Abiah Leavitt through LaVonne Myrtle Bell, the presence of significant shared DNA between RM and other known descendants of Wheeler Lewis/Abiah Leavitt validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Wheeler Lewis/Abiah Leavitt through LaVonne Myrtle Bell to RM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
