When weaving DNA and paper trail evidence together, how do we know when enough is enough? There’s often a thin line between a convincing case and one that falls just short of meeting genealogical standards. When we look at specific cases, what guides us in determining when we have enough DNA or enough documentary evidence or enough of both-and when more will be needed to meet the Genealogical Proof Standard?

Excellent, excellent, excellent! Wonderful examples and descriptions of the different situations and why or why not it was enough.
Always entertaining and packed with information
Each DNA webinar I listen to I learn more about how to use DNA to my advantage. Thanks for the lesson.
Excellent tools and ideas
There was a wealth of information in this webinar. I especially liked the examples. It explained it better.
Clear exposition of the types of options & responsibilities in doing this kind of research, presented in an interesting way likely to motivate researchers.
Excellent webinar. Judy Russell clarified my confusion re DNA + Documentary and what constitutes proof.
Extremely enlightening!
