Friday, 8:00 a.m., F309–"Genetic Genealogy: Effective Analysis and Correlation of DNA Test Results"
To go beyond the beginner level in using DNA, hands-on experience is necessary. "Genetic Genealogy: Effective Analysis and Correlation of DNA Test Results " is an intermediate-level workshop where attendees will analyze DNA test results and correlate those findings with documentary evidence to answer a genealogical question. To get the most of this session you should already have a basic understanding of DNA inheritance patterns, available tests, and test results as covered in introductory sessions normally presented at conferences.
These hands-on exercises illustrate analysis tools and techniques to take that next step for Y-DNA, mitochondrial DNA, autosomal DNA, and X-DNA analysis. Results from multiple testing companies are included.
Debbie Parker Wayne explains the complex subject of genetic genealogy in a way that is easy to understand. She teaches traditional research topics and genetic genealogy sessions. She has teamed up with other genetic genealogists to offer week-long, interactive, hands-on DNA courses helping beginners learn to use intermediate and advanced analysis techniques. Practical Genetic Genealogy will be offered twice this summer at the Genealogical Research Institute of Pittsburgh (GRIP, http://www.gripitt.org/) and Getting Started with Genetic Genealogy was offered in January 2015 at the Salt Lake Institute of Genealogy (SLIG, http://www.infouga.org/).
