Newton C. Morford (25/04/1900 - 1968)
The paternal relationship between Newton C. Morford and his son
Irvel Neil Morford is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JM.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JM and other confirmed descendants of
Abram Tompkins/
Mary Ann Eaton is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JM descends from Abram Tompkins/Mary Ann Eaton through Newton C. Morford and his son Irvel Neil Morford, the presence of significant shared DNA between JM and other known descendants of Abram Tompkins/Mary Ann Eaton validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Abram Tompkins/Mary Ann Eaton through Newton C. Morford to Irvel Neil Morford, and ultimately to JM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
