November general meeting and program




Linda Colton will be teaching a class on "DNA: Whys, Hows and What to Do With Your Results".  This class will briefly touch on why testing your DNA is helpful, the various companies and tests available, but mostly the class will focus on what to do with your results and how you can boost your research using DNA cousin matches.  Come and learn how to figure out those hundreds of cousin matches and see the latest awesome tools from the testing companies to help you find more relatives!
