The proposed relationship of Oren Elmer Harvill as the father of JDH and JLH is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 1st cousin, twice removed relationship between KM (a descendant of the JDH ancestral line) and KB (a descendant of the JLH ancestral line) with a shared segment of 204.50 cM .

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

Further support for shared ancestry within JDH and JLH is provided by an additional 4 DNA confirmed relationships among other tested descendants tracing back to these lines.
