DNA testing is now all the rage but what can you really learn from a DNA test? This talk provides an introduction to the use of DNA testing as a tool for family history research. The Y- chromosome test is widely used in surname projects and explores the direct male line. The mitochondrial DNA test follows the motherline. An autosomal DNA test can be used to find matches with genetic cousins on all your ancestral lines. The DNA databases are growing at a phenomenal rate and DNA testing now provides a new way of solving family mysteries and connecting with long lost cousins.
After the talk, tea and cake will be served (included within the price). Tickets can be booked at www.berksfhs.org.uk or you may pay at the door (subject to availability). Early booking is recommended as tickets are likely to sell out very quickly. Berkshire Family History Society is a registered charity (number 283010).
