Judith Dyck (27 Feb 1830 - 15 Jul 1906)

The maternal relationship between Judith Dyck and her daughter Elizabeth Epp is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant MDR.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between MDR and other confirmed descendants of Anton Heppner is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since MDR descends from Anton Heppner through Judith Dyck and her daughter Elizabeth Epp, the presence of significant shared DNA between MDR and other known descendants of Anton Heppner validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Anton Heppner through Judith Dyck to Elizabeth Epp, and ultimately to MDR, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
