Jacob A. Sawatzky (11 Feb 1897 - 1989)

The paternal relationship between Jacob A. Sawatzky and his daughter EAS is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DJK.

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

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA Anton Heppner through Jacob A. Sawatzky to EAS, and ultimately to DJK, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
