MCGS Virtual DNA Group Meeting - Aug 17, 2023

We are going 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, Aug 17th, 2023 at 7 pm, we will be covering Chapter 10 of the book, which deals with,

AnCIENT DNA

Then in the second half we will present a Mitochondrial DNA Case Study.
