Sara Schroeder (29 Jan 1869 - 12 Apr 1956)

The maternal relationship between Sara Schroeder and her son Gerhard Voth is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JV2.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JV2 and other confirmed descendants of Gerhard Schellenberg is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JV2 descends from Gerhard Schellenberg through Sara Schroeder and her son Gerhard Voth, the presence of significant shared DNA between JV2 and other known descendants of Gerhard Schellenberg validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Gerhard Schellenberg through Sara Schroeder to Gerhard Voth, and ultimately to JV2, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
