DNA Tools You Can Use
presented by
Connie Davis
Building genetic networks based on shared common ancestral couples forms the backbone of autosomal DNA analysis. Tools not available at the big testing companies can help, especially when your ancestors might descend from endogamous communities. We’ll take a look at WikiTree’s DNA features, some key tools at GEDmatch, and review how YDNA and mtDNA offer new insight into our ancestry.
To register, please just fill out this brief form and Zoom will send you a confirmation link (as well as a reminder e-mail).
