Sara Driedger (ABT 1821 - 23 Feb 1906)

  • Sara Driedger (ABT 1821 - 23 Feb 1906)
    The maternal relationship between Sara Driedger and her daughter Anna Neufeld is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant APF.

    The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between APF and other confirmed descendants of Cornelius Driedger/Katharina Krahn is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since APF descends from Cornelius Driedger/Katharina Krahn through Sara Driedger and her daughter Anna Neufeld, the presence of significant shared DNA between APF and other known descendants of Cornelius Driedger/Katharina Krahn validates the generational links along this maternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Cornelius Driedger/Katharina Krahn through Sara Driedger to Anna Neufeld, and ultimately to APF, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
