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