This is a working group that will apply the processes and concepts presented in Research Like a Pro with DNA, a book by Diana Elder, Nicole Dyer and Robin Wirthlin. Each month, starting in June 2024, we will review one chapter of the book and apply its concepts to one of our own research questions. Working together, we will analyze our DNA matches, conduct traditional genealogy and document and share our findings. Coming in late will be difficult so, if you are interested, it is important to attend the first couple of meetings. Presented by Denise Manning and Susan Luce.
