DNA tests are common tools for genealogy. Have you taken a DNA test and been confused by the outcome? Come learn from Dana Kelly who will explain the details and help you decipher your results.
Ancestral DNA tests can help you make connections to your living relatives and potentially find your ancestors. Many of the testing companies offer ancestral ethnicity estimates, and while each one is different, there are some common strategies that you can use to understand them better. Dana Kelly will share from her personal experience as a family member and long-time genealogist.
Dana Kelly serves as the Executive Director of the Norwegian American Genealogical Center in Madison, Wisconsin. She oversees the daily operation of the center and is active in outreach activities and educational programming. After being bitten by the genealogy bug at age 12, her passion for family history led her to a Scandinavian Studies degree from UW-Madison where she learned to speak, read and write Norwegian. She has served on the board of directors for the Koshkonong Prairie Historical Society since 2009 and is a member of several Norwegian cultural and genealogical organizations including Sons of Norway, Vesterheim, Society for the Advancement of Scandinavian Study, Dane County Area Genealogical Society, and International Society of Online Genetic Genealogists.
