Harold Leonard Meeker (21/07/1914 - 03/01/1984)

The paternal relationship between Harold Leonard Meeker and his daughter Barbara Joyce Meeker is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant RDC.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between RDC and other confirmed descendants of Timothy Meeker/Desire Cory is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since RDC descends from Timothy Meeker/Desire Cory through Harold Leonard Meeker and his daughter Barbara Joyce Meeker, the presence of significant shared DNA between RDC and other known descendants of Timothy Meeker/Desire Cory validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Timothy Meeker/Desire Cory through Harold Leonard Meeker to Barbara Joyce Meeker, and ultimately to RDC, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
