Virtual DNA Group Meeting - Oct 20, 2022

We have decided that for future DNA Group Meetings we are going to go through the book,

Tracing Your Ancestors Using DNA: A Guide for Family Historians

We will be going through this chapter by chapter, and we hope that this approach will appeal to a wide audience, including those who have yet to try DNA testing as an adjunct to their genealogy research.

For the next Virtual meeting on Thursday, October 20, 2022 at 7 pm, we will be discussing Chapter 1 of the book, which deals with "Why use DNA Testing for genealogy?"

If you want to get the maximum benefit from the meetings, it would be a good idea to purchase the book and read the relevant chapter before the meeting.

This first chapter is only 12 pages, so it should not be too difficult to read it in advance of the meeting. 
We believe that we will also have time at the meeting to present Case Studies. If you have one that your would like to present, please email Vernon Smith.
If you need help preparing the materials for this, please attend one of our Mentoring Sessions on Tuesdays at 1pm, and we can assist you.

One of the principal authors, Michelle Leonard, recently gave the webinar "The Top 10 DNA Do's and Dont's ", and I encourage you to watch this free webinar (click on the name).
