Emmitt Murdock (16 Apr 1916 - 24 Aug 1998)

The proposed relationship of Emmitt Murdock as the father of Carol Ann Murdock and DEM is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 1st cousin, once removed relationship between TLM (a descendant of the DEM ancestral line) and NA (a descendant of the Carol Ann Murdock ancestral line) with a shared segment of 471.16 cM across 21 HIR segments.

This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
