Klaas Krahn (ABT 1756 - ABT 1816)

  • Klaas Krahn (ABT 1756 - ABT 1816)
    The paternal relationship between Klaas Krahn and his daughter Krahn 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 Johann Krahn is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since JW descends from Johann Krahn through Klaas Krahn and his daughter Krahn, the presence of significant shared DNA between JW and other known descendants of Johann Krahn validates the generational links along this paternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Johann Krahn through Klaas Krahn to Krahn, and ultimately to JW, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
