Peter Daniel Wiens (30 Nov 1830 - 22 Oct 1898)

The paternal relationship between Peter Daniel Wiens and his daughter Maria Wiens 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 Daniel Wiens/Maria Braun is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JWF descends from Daniel Wiens/Maria Braun through Peter Daniel Wiens and his daughter Maria Wiens, the presence of significant shared DNA between JWF and other known descendants of Daniel Wiens/Maria Braun validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Daniel Wiens/Maria Braun through Peter Daniel Wiens to Maria Wiens, and ultimately to JWF, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
