Staying organized in your genetic genealogy research could mean the difference between celebrating the toppling of a brick wall, and beating your head against that same brick wall. Let's chat about how our DNA testing companies are making it even easier for you to keep your DNA organized in 2023.

Despite his best efforts, Geoff Rasmussen's long standing brick wall hasn't come down yet. John Williams, born in New York City between 1840-1854, was the son of John Williams. Family tradition says that "he was orphaned at the age of 10 and shifted around until he was 16". Geoff thinks it's time to add a little genetic genealogy to his plan. On hand to help him develop this DNA plan is DNA expert Diahan Southard. Join us and learn techniques that you can apply to your own family tree.

We know the DNA testing industry is changing all of the time, but how much have YDNA and mtDNA changed? Let's cover what is tried and true and what is new with these two "other" kinds of DNA tests.

The Only Thing You Need to Know About DNA and Genealogy
Often the more we learn about a topic the more we overcomplicate the application of that knowledge. Sometimes we need to step back and distill that knowledge down to just the essential parts to make it useful and actionable. Let's try that with DNA.
