Jacob Penner (13 Jul 1825 - 18 Sep 1896)

  • Jacob Penner (13 Jul 1825 - 18 Sep 1896)
    The paternal relationship between Jacob Penner and his son Kornelius Penner is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JWF.

    The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JWF and other confirmed descendants of JP is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JWF descends from JP through Jacob Penner and his son Kornelius Penner, the presence of significant shared DNA between JWF and other known descendants of JP validates the generational links along this paternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA JP through Jacob Penner to Kornelius Penner, and ultimately to JWF, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
