Considering DNA Testing for Genealogy?

 

Considering DNA Testing for Genealogy?


With the holidays, most of the leading genealogy DNA testing companies have their kits on sale.
Before you splurge for the cost of one, for yourself or as a gift, make sure you are aware of possible consequences.
On December 1st, the Library is offering a one-hour class on the basics of genealogical DNA testing, the types of tests, and a comparison of the five major testing companies: 
  • 23 and Me
  • Ancestry DNA
  • FamilyTree DNA
  • Living DNA
  • MyHeritage DNA.
See examples of ethnic origin and relative finder reports from each of the companies.
Most people don't put much thought into testing before they swab their cheeks. This class urges you to think before you buy.
The class is from 6:30-7:30 p.m.
