If you're curious about your DNA, guest speaker Kathleen Brandt will explore how testing can uncover family history, trace your family's story and connect you with relatives.
Whether you’re new to genealogy or already exploring your roots, this program will guide you through the fascinating world of genetic testing. Learn how DNA tests work, the results you can expect, and how to use them to uncover relatives and ancestors. You’ll get practical tips on DNA tools, testing companies and the benefits of joining DNA groups.
We encourage you to stay for noon roundtable discussions where you can ask questions and connect with others on the same journey of discovery. Noon-1:30pm will also be a great time to talk more with exhibitors.
