Event Details
Are you facing challenges such as non-parental events (NPE) or brick walls in your family tree? Discover how your Ancestry DNA results can be a powerful tool in identifying unknown family lines. In this lecture, we will explore techniques to sort your Ancestry matches, locate common ancestors, establish floating lines, and connect the pieces to unveil your biological mystery line. Additionally, we will explore external resources beyond Ancestry that can assist in breaking down these genealogical barriers. Through the analysis of a real brick wall case, we will discuss the evolution of solving such mysteries and share key tips for success. Furthermore, we will explore the differences between various DNA tests and how they can aid you in your quest.
