Genetic Genealogy 101

Cuban Family Roots PODCAST

In this episode we discuss Genetic Genealogy by explaining what is genetic genealogy as opposed to traditional Genealogy, and how can we use both to work out the precise genetic relationships. I discuss who can benefit from Genetic Genealogy, how we can use it to proof our paper trail, and the existence of various types of DNA test and their purpose. I interview Diahan Southard a leading voice for consumer DNA testing, founder of Your DNA Guide, and author of Your DNA Guide the Book. Diahan answers some of the most sought out questions from the Cuban Genealogy community. She explain how to put things into perspective when it comes to having many DNA matches. In addition, She discusses a case and how she was able to help an individual using "Your DNA Guide".
