DNA data has much to offer, but you must take additional steps to make it happen. One way is to upload your raw DNA data to GEDmatch.com. GEDmatch is a website that lets users share their DNA information with other testers, explore genetic genealogy, perform DNA match comparisons. GEDmatch power-user Patti Williams will present:
How to download your raw DNA results and begin using GEDmatch.com

Overview of Tier 1 tools
And more!
Patti Williams began her genealogy journey in 2013, inspired by her son's interest in Civil War ancestors and the encouragement of her 90-year-old grandmother. Since then, she has become a passionate researcher and speaker, managing over 60 family DNA kits and developing programs on topics ranging from beginner genealogy to advanced DNA analysis. A former board member of the Dallas Genealogical Society, she now dedicates her time to educating and inspiring others through workshops, seminars, and society events across Texas and beyond.
