DNA tests can uncover your family history
Taking a DNA test can help you uncover the past in ways that were not previously possible. Come and learn about the types of DNA test that are available, how they can help you and what you can achieve. DNA tests can verify your existing family tree and also help you to get back further, beyond paper records. Real examples will be given of how DNA tests have been used to reach back in time and enhance your research with whole new verified branches of your tree.
