The maternal relationship between Magdalena Forret and her daughter
Margaret Feller is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant VN.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between VN and other confirmed descendants of
Nicholas Forret/
Margaret L Fehlen is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since VN descends from Nicholas Forret/Margaret L Fehlen through Magdalena Forret and her daughter Margaret Feller, the presence of significant shared DNA between VN and other known descendants of Nicholas Forret/Margaret L Fehlen validates the generational links along this maternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Nicholas Forret/Margaret L Fehlen through Magdalena Forret to Margaret Feller, and ultimately to VN, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
