Is Big Y Testing For Me?: The Genealogy Side – Linda Reid
This presentation looks at the potential of the most powerful Y-DNA test from the perspective of the genealogist, not the scientist. Y-DNA testing is narrow, but deep. It focuses on a single line of descent, the Y-chromosome that follows the patrilineal line from father to son into the distant past. We can use Y-DNA tests for all lines of our family if we identify and test appropriate male relatives. This presentation looks at how to select testees for successful outcomes in the short term. Examples show different scenarios, including confirming published pedigrees to the mid-17th century.
