Jacob Wall (15 May 1807 - ABT 1860)

  • Jacob Wall (15 May 1807 - ABT 1860)
    The paternal relationship between Jacob Wall and his daughter Gertrude Wall is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant JP.

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

    This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Johann Wall through Jacob Wall to Gertrude Wall, and ultimately to JP, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
