The paternal relationship between Willard H Morris and his daughter JM is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JM.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JM and other confirmed descendants of Henry Reuben Morris is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JM descends from Henry Reuben Morris through Willard H Morris and his daughter JM, the presence of significant shared DNA between JM and other known descendants of Henry Reuben Morris validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Henry Reuben Morris through Willard H Morris to JM, and ultimately to JM, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
