The maternal relationship between Vida Murdoch and her daughter
Glenna Fillmore is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant PL.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between PL and other confirmed descendants of
John Murray Murdoch/
Ann Steele is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since PL descends from John Murray Murdoch/Ann Steele through Vida Murdoch and her daughter Glenna Fillmore, the presence of significant shared DNA between PL and other known descendants of John Murray Murdoch/Ann Steele validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple John Murray Murdoch/Ann Steele through Vida Murdoch to Glenna Fillmore, and ultimately to PL, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
