DNA and Family History

The North of Ireland Family History Society (NIFHS) is a strong advocate of DNA testing to enhance the study of family history across Ulster. They are very pleased to be hosting four guests from FamilyTreeDNA for a series of talks about DNA at the Public Records Office.

FamilyTreeDNA is one of the major testing companies and the only one to provide Y and Mitochondrial testing for genealogical research. Their home is in Houston, Texas so this is a unique opportunity to meet them and hear about DNA research and innovations.
