The paternal relationship between Jacob Simon and his son Jacob Simon Jr. is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DL.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DL and other confirmed descendants of Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DL descends from Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery through Jacob Simon and his son Jacob Simon Jr., the presence of significant shared DNA between DL and other known descendants of Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Johannes Christoph Simon/Anna Caterin Bromery through Jacob Simon to Jacob Simon Jr., and ultimately to DL, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
