Presentations Information

Title: Understanding the Ethnic Ancestry in Your DNA Test

Summary: The inclusion of ethnic ancestry reports in autosomal DNA test results has greatly expanded the market for these tests. But there is considerable confusion about such reports. This session is designed to shed light on the subject and provide numerous examples comparing DNA tests from eight different companies.

Title: Y-Chromosome Insights & Strategies

Summary: With so much focus on autosomal DNA tests, many people overlook Y-chromosome testing. Yet Y-DNA’s uniquely male inheritance path lets you do things that cannot be done through other test types. This presentation will introduce you to Y-DNA testing and how it can be used for genealogy.
