Wilhelmine Rakow (1862 - 1927)

The proposed relationship of Wilhelmine Rakow as the mother of Martha Rahn and Anna Rahn is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.

Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a distant cousin relationship between CS (a descendant of the Martha Rahn ancestral line) and SW (a descendant of the Anna Rahn ancestral line) with a shared segment of 43.67 cM across 3 HIR segments.

This match is consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
