Arthur Leroy Van Wagenen (18 Aug 1903 - 24 Dec 1995)

The proposed relationship of Arthur Leroy Van Wagenen as the father of CVW and LGVW is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a great aunt / uncle relationship between RS (a descendant of the CVW ancestral line) and MCVW (a descendant of the LGVW ancestral line) with a shared segment of 701.14 cM across 26 HIR segments.

This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
