The paternal relationship between Billie C Scott and his son William Clare Scott is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JS.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JS and other confirmed descendants of William Scott/Rachel Mounts is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JS descends from William Scott/Rachel Mounts through Billie C Scott and his son William Clare Scott, the presence of significant shared DNA between JS and other known descendants of William Scott/Rachel Mounts validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple William Scott/Rachel Mounts through Billie C Scott to William Clare Scott, and ultimately to JS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
