Integrating deep & shallow genealogical DNA tests

Streaming video - 2019

The most commonly used DNA tests for genealogical purposes (AncestryDNA, 23andMe, MyHeritage, etc.) work most effectively matching 3rd cousin and closer relatives. This program will focus on a strategy that integrates between these shallow tests within a genealogy and tests of deep genealogical relationships using mtDNA or Y chromosome. Genealogical questions that stimulate a need for these specialized DNA tests will be presented along with an approach that leverages connections with DNA matches to identify appropriate individuals for further testing.
