Join us for a seminar with professional genealogist Diana Elder, co-author of Research Like a Pro With DNA: A Genealogists Guide to Finding and Confirming Ancestors with DNA Evidence. Dina will be presenting three sessions: 1. DNA Reports: You’ve made a DNA Discovery. Now, How Do You Share It?
Learn strategies for correlating and summarizing your DNA discoveries in a research report to share with clients, cousins, or for your own records.
2. Solving a Family Mystery with DNA
Learn how combining traditional research with DNA evidence revealed an unknown grandfather in this compelling case study. Follow the project from the beginning steps of creating an objective to writing the conclusions. Discover the importance of a research log and careful tracking of sources. Finally, see how Y-DNA and autosomal DNA used in tandem with the documentary sources solved this family’s mystery.
3. Pedigree Triangulation: A Key Methodology for Genetic Genealogy
Learn the power of pedigree triangulation in analyzing DNA matches and building your genetic family tree. Discover how to use company tools such as Ancestry’s Thrulines and MyHeritage’s Theory of Family Relativity to boost efficiency and accelerate your discovery of common ancestors. We’ll discuss the basic steps of analyzing the amount of shared DNA, then building incomplete trees and comparing surnames and locations.
