Eighteen members joined our first DNA Special Interest Group Meeting via Zoom on Monday evening, 30th August. Congratulations and thanks to all who attended and contributed to a must successful launch.
The session commenced with a presentation by our member, Jan, who gave a synopsis of some insights she had gained from a DNA course she is attending at The Society of Australian Genealogists. During this talk on DNA fundamentals Jan and members answered attendees questions and gave examples from their research.
Following a general discussion on DNA matters all attendees were invited to share the outcomes they hoped to gain from participation in the Group. It was agreed that the Group would meet again on Monday 13th September at 7pm.
In this next session we will "start at the very beginning" by examining the DNA matches of two members during which we will discuss what the results show and make suggestions for organising these matches.
