Clarence Murdock (ABT 1900 - 20 Jan 1980)

The paternal relationship between Clarence Murdock and his daughter BJM is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant BJM.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between BJM and other confirmed descendants of John Murray Murdoch is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since BJM descends from John Murray Murdoch through Clarence Murdock and his daughter BJM, the presence of significant shared DNA between BJM and other known descendants of John Murray Murdoch validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA John Murray Murdoch through Clarence Murdock to BJM, and ultimately to BJM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
