DNA Matching Made Easy on MyHeritage

Join us for a FREE virtual program on Feb 1 at 6:30 p.m. ET!

MyHeritage has an amazing array of tools to help break down your genealogical brick walls with DNA matches. This presentation is an overview of using DNA matches to solve genealogical mysteries. It will cover a basic review of atDNA testing (what it is and how it can be used), what information is provided on a match page, how that information can be analyzed to assist paper genealogical research, and examples from Shannon’s own DNA results.
