You inspired me. I did it. The results came back. And now I want YOU to be there!
I'm talking about my first DNA test of course. A few months back I asked for your advice about which DNA test to order. With your help and encouragement I did it. In fact, I ordered two tests – one for each of my mother's parents. And just recently I received an email with this subject line:
Your AncestryDNA results are in!
I clicked on the link and browsed around a bit. Before I looked too closely, however, I closed it down. Not because I didn't like what I saw, but because I thought I would invite YOU to be with me – LIVE! while I explored my results. What I briefly saw looked interesting, and I think it could help with one of my brick wall problems, but I wasn't really sure what I was looking at. So I invited DNA expert, Diahan Southard, to join me to interpret the results in a brand new Watch Geoff Live: DNA live webinar on April 19, 2016, where we will discover together what this DNA test is all about.
The result will be a live and unscripted session giving DNA neophytes (like me, and maybe some of you) a first-hand look at what to expect from a DNA test. I'd love to share this experience with all of you, so please register for the live webinar here. Previous Watch Geoff Live! webinars have been wildly successful and I expect this one to be no different. Well, unless my DNA explains I was found under a rock like my Dad used to tell me.
Geoff,
Your excitement is understandable.
But (and there always seems to be a “but”), when looking at DNA matches many lecturers will use static slides of their match lists, not live website screens shots. This is to protect the privacy of your matches, as some of your matches may have used their real names on their kit entries.
