Leroy D. Mayfield (18 Apr 1906 - ABT 1952)

The paternal relationship between Leroy D. Mayfield and his daughter JEM is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JEM.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JEM and other confirmed descendants of Merida Greenville Adcock/Georganne M. Stone is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JEM descends from Merida Greenville Adcock/Georganne M. Stone through Leroy D. Mayfield and his daughter JEM, the presence of significant shared DNA between JEM and other known descendants of Merida Greenville Adcock/Georganne M. Stone validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Merida Greenville Adcock/Georganne M. Stone through Leroy D. Mayfield to JEM, and ultimately to JEM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
