Elisabeth Thiessen (24 Jun 1852 - 12 Dec 1923)

The maternal relationship between Elisabeth Thiessen and her daughter Elizabeth Penner is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JW.

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

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA MR through Elisabeth Thiessen to Elizabeth Penner, and ultimately to JW, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
