Johann Martens (ABT 1812 - 29 Jul 1901)

The paternal relationship between Johann Martens and his daughter Helena Martens is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DJG.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DJG and other confirmed descendants of Peter Martens is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DJG descends from Peter Martens through Johann Martens and his daughter Helena Martens, the presence of significant shared DNA between DJG and other known descendants of Peter Martens validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Peter Martens through Johann Martens to Helena Martens, and ultimately to DJG, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
