The paternal relationship between Jacob Sawatsky and his daughter
Helena Sawatzky is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant DD.
The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between DD and other confirmed descendants of
Johann Sawatzky/
Susanna "sanke" Entz is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since DD descends from Johann Sawatzky/Susanna "sanke" Entz through Jacob Sawatsky and his daughter Helena Sawatzky, the presence of significant shared DNA between DD and other known descendants of Johann Sawatzky/Susanna "sanke" Entz validates the generational links along this paternal line.
This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Johann Sawatzky/Susanna "sanke" Entz through Jacob Sawatsky to Helena Sawatzky, and ultimately to DD, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
