AncestryDNA Best Practices on Zoom Nov. 18

Past event
Nov 18, 2023, 10 AM to 12 PM

AncestryDNA is a popular DNA testing company with over 22 million people kits being purchased. In this presentation Ed McGuire will explain all of the major features provided to customers - from the "Ethnicity Estimates" to "ThruLines" and, most importantly, "Shared Matches." Ed will discuss how best to contact genetic cousins, how to identify networks of matches likely share DNA with you, and how to stay organized as you explore this new genetic landscape. Along the way he will clarify the limitations of each tool and demonstrate some advanced techniques that just might allow you breach a brick wall or two. Classes for the Vermont Genealogy Library will be held online via Zoom from 10:30 to noon. Cost is $10.00. Please visit our website, www.vtgenlib.org for additional details and for registration.
