Zoom DNA Discussion Group with Laura Lincoln

Discussion about various aspects of DNA

Today, Laura will be showing how you can group your DNA Matches to represent your 4 grandparent lines. This may help you target which of your DNA Matches might help you understand a particular branch of your tree.

Maybe this could provide a clue to an ancestor's unknown parentage, say in either illegitimacy or adoption? Or quite simply could it help you take comfort that your traditional research is sound and you have identified an ancestor correctly? 

The topic for each meeting is agreed by the members by notifying the leader through workshop.booking@nwkfhs.org.uk. 

The topics can range from basic information to methods to how to link your matches to your family tree. 

The autosomal test (eg by Ancestry or FamilyTreeDNA's Family Finder) is explored but both YDNA (paternal line) and mtDNA (maternal line) can be discussed..

A members-only event.

Please log in from 10.15am and enjoy chat amongst participants before the workshop starts.
