SUMMARY:Irish SIG: Using DNA for Your Irish Family History
DESCRIPTION:Many Americans have Irish ancestry and are keen to know more about their Irish forebears. However\, a stumbling block to researching those ancestors is not knowing where in Ireland they came from\, as most often all we see on documents for place of origin is “Ireland.” However\, the advent of DNA testing may be just the thing to help you overcome this obstacle. \nFeatured Speaker: Claire Bradley\, Irish genealogist \n  \nThe recording of this meeting is here. (This recording will expire on 24 January 2027.) \nThe handout for this meeting is here.
