The paternal relationship between William Clare Scott and his DNA tested son JS is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JS and other confirmed descendants of
William Scott/
Rachel Mounts is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JS descends from William Scott/Rachel Mounts through William Clare Scott, the presence of significant shared DNA between JS and other known descendants of William Scott/Rachel Mounts validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple William Scott/Rachel Mounts through William Clare Scott to JS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
