Event Details

Get step-by-step guidance on turning DNA test results into family history clues. We’ll explore shared matches, centimorgans, and practical strategies for linking your results to your family tree—even if you’re just getting started. You’ll learn how to prioritize your closest matches, spot patterns that point to family lines, and avoid common pitfalls that can lead you off track. Bring your curiosity and leave with tools and confidence to make real discoveries from your DNA.
