Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a distant cousin relationship between VK (a descendant of the Otto Gustav Radke ancestral line) and FD (a descendant of the Herbert Drefs ancestral line) with 210.92 cM of shared DNA across 10 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, twice removed relationship between TVH (a descendant of the Lydia Drefs ancestral line) and JR (a descendant of the Otto Gustav Radke ancestral line) with 123.35 cM of shared DNA across 6 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between GP2 (a descendant of the Emilie Radke ancestral line) and LK (a descendant of the Otto Gustav Radke ancestral line) with 215.96 cM of shared DNA across 9 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between LK (a descendant of the Otto Gustav Radke ancestral line) and SH2 (a descendant of the Gustav Radke ancestral line) with 210.92 cM of shared DNA across 11 HIR segments.
It also confirms a distant cousin relationship between TVH (a descendant of the Lydia Drefs ancestral line) and MR2 (a descendant of the Gustav Radke ancestral line) with 69.91 cM of shared DNA across 3 HIR segments.
These matches are consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
