John 'Henry' William Humke
The proposed relationship of John 'Henry' William Humke as the father of WFH, ELMWH and LH is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.
Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between JG2 (a descendant of the WFH ancestral line) and DRH (a descendant of the ELMWH ancestral line) with 154.53 cM of shared DNA across 6 HIR segments.
It also confirms a distant cousin relationship between DH (a descendant of the LH ancestral line) and JG2 (a descendant of the WFH ancestral line) with 75.04 cM of shared DNA across 1 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between DH (a descendant of the LH ancestral line) and KSH (a descendant of the ELMWH ancestral line) with 153.71 cM of shared DNA across 6 HIR segments.
These matches are consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
Further support for shared ancestry within the WFH, ELMWH and LH lines is provided by an additional 4 DNA confirmed relationships among other tested descendants tracing back to these lines.
