About this webinar

We can trace the paths of ancestors far back into prehistory. We will never know their names or individual vital information. However BIG Y 700 and mtDNA tests now allow us to estimate the paths their haplogroups took as they migrated out of Africa and into Europe.

    This was a very interesting presentation and the graphics were wonderful. I especially liked the pacing that David Dowell used. It was just right for such a complicated subject with the DNA clues and how they could be used to get out of Africa and then to move north. I will be watching this again!

    Mr. Dowell presented very interesting information on origins of certain haplogroups out of Africa and their travel paths and travel time to Europe. He also gave great information on the different types of DNA which can be used in research of families.

    So much detail! I had a harder time connecting with the speaker on some processes…but he definitely knew his subject matter well. I look forward to getting on the different sites now, and studying some of the details I had found there in more detail.

    Very informative and extremely interesting. He answered some questions I’ve been asking myself about Eastern Europe showing up in my DNA results. A lot was over my head but hope to use some of it in further research.
