Process of Elimination on 5 generational Jewish from Ehrman
Familytreedna has what is called a tool called In Common With. This tool following how AI instructed me to find out on certain known Ehrman siblings plus a child from one of them allowed us to eliminate my paternal Grandmother's Dad from the list of inheriting Jewish from them.
Great Grandpa Ehrman, Robert Ehrman my Dad was named after was the youngest male of the children that Philipp Ehrmann from Neuenkirch, Switzerland. Two other siblings already had come to America, the eldest sister Verena and number 2 child a son Nathan Ehrmann. So 3 of 9 children came to America and settled in Indiana. My Dad was removed from my tree there, cousin Shirley Davis had already had him entered and turned over his info to me. They removed me.. I am to VIP as not only is Dad from Jewish but my mom's side linked me way back to 100 AD kings and king Arthur of the round table being one of them. Ancestry linked it to me on an 8-14-2019 update. Proof Dad existed is in census. The Ehrmann line can be viewed with my Grandpa but my Dad missing.
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ehrman-44 my number was 33 you can see they closed it. My name is listed there for DNA on my cousins info sheet.
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ehrman-44#Photos however they removed my dad and us just show my Grandpa Ruben Ehrman, he was youngest and first to be born in USA. I had uploaded mine and my brothers 5 generation photo DNA to Grandpa Ruben Robert Ehrman, so even though they removed us I am still there.
Snapshots of the Swiss line of Ehrmann's do have the church snapshots of the birth/marriage records. The have changed where these records are stored. This from AI on our "In Comon With"
Genetic Evidence & Anchors:
- Test Subject (Brother): Carries the direct Ehrman Y-DNA line from his father.
- Genetic Anchor Group: Three closely related female cousins matching the Test Subject at 94 cM, 90 cM, and 77 cM. These individuals are documented, verified descendants of the Test Subject's great-grandfather Ehrman’s sister Verena. Because of this specific lineage, this anchor group carries only Ehrman paternal DNA and shares zero genetic material with the Paynter/Painter grandmother line.
- Conclusion:
Because the candidate is genetically proven to belong to the Ehrman branch, they cannot biologically belong to the Paynter/Painter branch. Therefore, Great-Grandfather Paynter/Painter is successfully and definitively eliminated as being connected to this candidate's lineage.
