David Doerksen (22 Oct 1865 - 23 Mar 1935)

The paternal relationship between David Doerksen and his daughter Anganetha Doerksen is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant MWF.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between MWF and other confirmed descendants of Benjamin Defehr/AB is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since MWF descends from Benjamin Defehr/AB through David Doerksen and his daughter Anganetha Doerksen, the presence of significant shared DNA between MWF and other known descendants of Benjamin Defehr/AB validates the generational links along this paternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Benjamin Defehr/AB through David Doerksen to Anganetha Doerksen, and ultimately to MWF, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
