Peter Fehr (17 Sep 1828 - 21 Sep 1906)

  • Peter Fehr (17 Sep 1828 - 21 Sep 1906)
    The paternal relationship between Peter Fehr and his daughter Sara B. Fehr is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant HW.

    The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between HW and other confirmed descendants of Benjamin Defehr/AB is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since HW descends from Benjamin Defehr/AB through Peter Fehr and his daughter Sara B. Fehr, the presence of significant shared DNA between HW and other known descendants of Benjamin Defehr/AB validates the generational links along this paternal line.

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Benjamin Defehr/AB through Peter Fehr to Sara B. Fehr, and ultimately to HW, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
