Johann Braun (ABT 1782 - 19 Jul 1852)

The paternal relationship between Johann Braun and his son Johann Braun is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant EE.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between EE and other confirmed descendants of Johan Driedger/Katharina Bergen is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since EE descends from Johan Driedger/Katharina Bergen through Johann Braun and his son Johann Braun, the presence of significant shared DNA between EE and other known descendants of Johan Driedger/Katharina Bergen validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Johan Driedger/Katharina Bergen through Johann Braun to Johann Braun, and ultimately to EE, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
