Minnesota Genealogical Society will present “DNA for Beginners” on Wednesday, Feb. 6 at 8 p.m. Have you taken a DNA test and wonder “now what?” Curious about using DNA for genealogy research but don’t know where to begin? We will start at the beginning…the very beginning. Learn all about genetic genealogy, but without all the science. But just enough to build your understanding of what DNA is, types of DNA, how it is used in genealogy, how the different testing companies compare, and much more. We’ll also go over common genetic genealogy terminology and basic inheritance patterns.
