Ancestry has more than 15 million DNA testers- so if you do a DNA test you are bound to find hundreds and more likely thousands of DNA cousins. How or where do you start to figure out who’s who? Ancestry just released some great new tools to help you in grouping, sorting and powerfully working with your matches. These tricks will help even if the match doesn’t have a public tree. If you’ve taken an Ancestry DNA test, you will want to come to this class and see how to use the new tools to help you with your DNA research. A color coding option that helps in identifying your different grandparents lines. And an online DNA calculator to help figure out the relationships probabilities.

Tammy Stevenson
Tammy Stevenson I started family history as a teenager copying the papers of my grandma more than 40 years ago. Oh my how it has changed over my life time. I actively research my own family and love uploading memorabilia to ensure their whole lives are preserved, not just the dates and places. I want my grandchildren to know and love their ancestors. I have worked at the Burley FamilySearch Center for more than 10 years and love assisting others in their research and digitizing endeavors. I also enjoy teaching classes and loving learning news skills and tricks from others and as I prepare to teach new classes.
