Harold Earl Van Wagenen (29 Nov 1909 - 28 Jan 1992)

The paternal relationship between Harold Earl Van Wagenen and his daughter VCVW is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant WW.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between WW and other confirmed descendants of David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since WW descends from David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost through Harold Earl Van Wagenen and his daughter VCVW, the presence of significant shared DNA between WW and other known descendants of David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple David Van Wagenen/Julia Ann Provost through Harold Earl Van Wagenen to VCVW, and ultimately to WW, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
