Genetic Genealogy DNA Special Interest Group (Special Interest Groups)
6:30 pm Christ Episcopal Church, 5910 Babcock Blvd 15237
APRIL TOPIC:
RESPONDING TO A SURPRISE FINDING FROM A DNA RESULT:
PROBLEM-SOLVING AND THE IMPORTANCE OF "FAMILY ALLIES"
One of the realities of genetic genealogy is that new DNA results sometimes lead to surprise findings that both cause us to reevaluate our research and to have sensitive conversations with testers.
We will discuss the process of building evidence on a surprise finding and the art of identifying family allies who can help to facilitate sensitive conversations.
DNA SIG members Debra Christopher and Patricia Keller will present an interesting case study of a surprise finding in their research, and will discuss their roles as family allies in moving forward after the surprise results.
In preparation for the meeting, each of us should consider a surprise finding in our own research for our group discussions.
This Interest Group focuses specifically on the use of DNA and Genetic Genealogy in our research projects. More details on the group are available at DNA SIG. This group is being led by Ray Jones, PhD.
