Furr Y-DNA

 

The charts and graphics below are based on the most definitive DNA test available for direct male descendants – Big Y-700.

Y-DNA RESULTS

This chart shows Heinrich Furr(er) and Leonard Furr(er) are clearly related.  Also, Heinrich's line has a mutation that Leonard's does not, and this mutation is more recent than the "older" haplogroup that Leonard descends from.  Exactly what their relationship is (cousin, uncle/nephew) can not be determined through DNA, but DNA definitively rules them out as father/son.

According to a DNA expert:

 

“As you can see the Furrer/Forry/Furr line and Kδgi/Kaegi/Kagay line commences with a common ancestor that was I-Y94948 who lived around 750 +/- years ago.

 

The Kδgi line split off with I-FT134304 ancestor while the Furrer/Furr line split off with two lines. One line is that of David Forry from Fridi Furrer and the other line was I-FTB20387 that appears to be the line from Hans Jacob Furrer.

 

There are then two documented lines descended from the I-FTB20387 ancestor. One line is that of Johannes Forrer while the second line is that of the I-Y132496 Furr line. This I-Y132496 Furr ancestor may well have been Heinrich Furr/Furrer but it is more likely that he was an ancestor of both Heinrich and Leonard Furr.”
