Herman Neufeld (ABT 1871 - 23 Dec 1903)

The paternal relationship between Herman Neufeld and his son Herman Neufeld is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant ADN.

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

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Jacob Schellenberg/Christina Loewen through Herman Neufeld to Herman Neufeld, and ultimately to ADN, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
