The paternal relationship between Donald Eugene Brown and his daughter CL is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant CL.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between CL and other confirmed descendants of Seth Jones/Rachel Knight Rizor is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CL descends from Seth Jones/Rachel Knight Rizor through Donald Eugene Brown and his daughter CL, the presence of significant shared DNA between CL and other known descendants of Seth Jones/Rachel Knight Rizor validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Seth Jones/Rachel Knight Rizor through Donald Eugene Brown to CL, and ultimately to CL, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
