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