Cornelius Benjamin Defehr (ABT 1784 - )

The paternal relationship between Cornelius Benjamin Defehr and his daughter Anna Defehr is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant CK.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between CK and other confirmed descendants of Benjamin Defehr/AB is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since CK descends from Benjamin Defehr/AB through Cornelius Benjamin Defehr and his daughter Anna Defehr, the presence of significant shared DNA between CK and other known descendants of Benjamin Defehr/AB validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Benjamin Defehr/AB through Cornelius Benjamin Defehr to Anna Defehr, and ultimately to CK, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
