Cornelius Jacob Penner (1799 - 1838)

  • Cornelius Jacob Penner (1799 - 1838)
    The paternal relationship between Cornelius Jacob Penner and his son Jacob Penner is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JWF.

    The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between JWF and other confirmed descendants of JP is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JWF descends from JP through Cornelius Jacob Penner and his son Jacob Penner, the presence of significant shared DNA between JWF and other known descendants of JP validates the generational links along this paternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA JP through Cornelius Jacob Penner to Jacob Penner, and ultimately to JWF, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
