Elizabeth Epp (19 Dec 1866 - ABT 1946)

The maternal relationship between Elizabeth Epp and her daughter Judith Wieler is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant MDR.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between MDR and other confirmed descendants of Anton Heppner is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since MDR descends from Anton Heppner through Elizabeth Epp and her daughter Judith Wieler, the presence of significant shared DNA between MDR and other known descendants of Anton Heppner validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Anton Heppner through Elizabeth Epp to Judith Wieler, and ultimately to MDR, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
