Join us for a FREE virtual program on September 19 at 6:30 p.m. ET!

In this session, we’ll explore the different types of commercially available DNA tests—autosomal, mtDNA, and Y-DNA—and how to choose the perfect one to achieve your family history goals.

Today’s focus will be a deep dive into Y-DNA testing. We'll take you through a visual walkthrough of FamilyTreeDNA results, guiding you through the interface, key sections, and reports. Learn how to interpret your results, join family groups, and uncover your genetic heritage. Presented by Scott Tribble.
