The father's confirmed with DNA relationship status indicator was cleared because the DNA confirmation is not cited under Sources (DB error 213).

Please go here for guidance on providing the proper source documentation when confirming genealogy with DNA on WikiTree. This article provides guidance for connecting DNA tests to Wikitree, if needed.

Thank you.

John Kingman, Coordinator with the DNA Project

If there isn't a proper source citation the "Confirmed with DNA" relationship status should be removed (by you or another member). -- WikiTree help for confirming with DNA
