The paternal relationship between Albert Carl Heinrich Rakow and his son
Albert Carl August Rakow is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant PELR.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between PELR and other confirmed descendants of
Christoph Rakow/ALS is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since PELR descends from Christoph Rakow/ALS through Albert Carl Heinrich Rakow and his son Albert Carl August Rakow, the presence of significant shared DNA between PELR and other known descendants of Christoph Rakow/ALS validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Christoph Rakow/ALS through Albert Carl Heinrich Rakow to Albert Carl August Rakow, and ultimately to PELR, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
