Orson Edwin Giles (25 Sep 1883 - 17 Jun 1956)

The paternal relationship between Orson Edwin Giles and his daughter Lawanna Giles is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant GG.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between GG and other confirmed descendants of John Murray Murdoch is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since GG descends from John Murray Murdoch through Orson Edwin Giles and his daughter Lawanna Giles, the presence of significant shared DNA between GG 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 Orson Edwin Giles to Lawanna Giles, and ultimately to GG, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
