The paternal relationship between Raymond Grant Gettz and his daughter HLG is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant KR.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between KR and other confirmed descendants of Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since KR descends from Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery through Raymond Grant Gettz and his daughter HLG, the presence of significant shared DNA between KR and other known descendants of Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery through Raymond Grant Gettz to HLG, and ultimately to KR, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
