The paternal relationship between Traugott Louis GRÜNKE and his son AG is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant PELR.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between PELR and other confirmed descendants of Andreas Ludwig GRÜNKE/Mathilde HÜBNER is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since PELR descends from Andreas Ludwig GRÜNKE/Mathilde HÜBNER through Traugott Louis GRÜNKE and his son AG, the presence of significant shared DNA between PELR and other known descendants of Andreas Ludwig GRÜNKE/Mathilde HÜBNER validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Andreas Ludwig GRÜNKE/Mathilde HÜBNER through Traugott Louis GRÜNKE to AG, and ultimately to PELR, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
