Please join Dr D and Bernice Bennett on Thursday night, January 29th, at 9:00 PM Eastern time as we talk about genetic genealogy on blog talk radio over the internet. Bernice is the host of the show "Research at the National Archives and Beyond". Here is what she has to say about her show:
Welcome to Research at the National Archives and Beyond! This show will provide individuals interested in genealogy and history an opportunity to listen, learn and take action. You can join me every Thursday at 9 pm Eastern, 8 pm Central, 7pm Mountain and 6 pm Pacific where I will have a wonderful line up of experts who will share resources, stories and answer your burning genealogy questions. All of my guests share a deep passion and knowledge of genealogy and history. My goal is to reach individuals who are thinking about tracing their family roots; beginners who have already started and others who believe that continuous learning is the key to finding answers. "Remember, your ancestors left footprints".This week's show focuses on genetic genealogy:
What do you know about DNA? Have you had your DNA tested and still have questions about your results?
