DNA Case Study proving relationship and Surname Maps

We had a great meet at the Lakehouse in-person as well as those on zoom.  

Our first and primary topic was by a guest speaker : Phil Pritzlaff: video replay here

• Autosomal DNA - Case Study: Who is my Great Grandfather
• Y-DNA Testing - Case Study: Who is my 10th Great Grandfather
• The Value of Ancestry Connections and sharing with others

Our second topic was Surname Distribution Maps: A Valuable Tool for Genealogical Research (we did not finish this topic and will continue at the next meeting).

There were some really good feedback about the approach Phil used and how they might apply it themselves.
