SUMMARY:Ancestral Origins and DNA with Angie Bush\, MS
DESCRIPTION:There has long been caution in genealogy circles about ethnicity estimates and their reliability. However\, the science behind ethnicity estimates is solid\, and there is much you can learn from them. We will explore the science behind the estimates and how best to contextualize and interpret the results. We will also discuss situations for which caution should be used with ethnicity results. We will also learn about the tools each company provides to help you learn more about your ancestral origins. \nThis is our delegate meeting\, which will be open to the public. It will be a hybrid event\, held in person in Lansing and virtually via Zoom. Angie will be present on-site in Lansing. Please note that it will be held on a Friday as a kickoff for the 2024 MGC Fall Family History Event. There is no charge for this session. \nRegister in advance for this webinar. \n  \n
