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.

The DNA Interest Group is a partnership program between Carlsbad City Library and the North San Diego County Genealogical Society. This program is designed to educate and inform people about the use of DNA testing for genealogical purposes through lectures on DNA. The DNA Interest Group is open to people who have all levels of computer and genealogy experience.

The program is held the third Saturday of the month from January through November and is presented in person and virtually.

• Doors open at 12:30 p.m. for social time.
• Presentations, including question-and-answer sessions, are held from 1 to 2:30 p.m.
• Breakout discussions and individualized help is usually available until 3 p.m.
