Pikes Peak Genealogical Society: Using DNA in Ancestry Researchat PeakRadar

Even though our 18th- and 19th-century ancestors have been dead for decades, their DNA still survives in their descendants. Learn how to use autosomal DNA to attack and potentially solve genealogical mysteries and brick walls for ancestors who were born or lived in the 1700s and 1800s. Blaine Bettinger is a professional genealogist specializing in DNA evidence and AI for genealogy. He has been a leader in the field of genetic genealogy and has contributed to several aspects of genetic genealogy methodology and analysis through his research, lectures, the books he has written, and the social media groups that he founded and oversees.
