Jon Rudolph deFlon (11 Nov 1932 - 21 Jul 2009)

The paternal relationship between Jon Rudolph deFlon and his DNA tested son RLD is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between RLD and other confirmed descendants of Andrew Anders Svensson Sjölin Schelin/Eva Sophia Råström Rodestrom is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since RLD descends from Andrew Anders Svensson Sjölin Schelin/Eva Sophia Råström Rodestrom through Jon Rudolph deFlon, the presence of significant shared DNA between RLD and other known descendants of Andrew Anders Svensson Sjölin Schelin/Eva Sophia Råström Rodestrom validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Andrew Anders Svensson Sjölin Schelin/Eva Sophia Råström Rodestrom through Jon Rudolph deFlon to RLD, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
