About this webinar
Family historians researching in Poland and Ukraine have to deal with gaps in records that could make progress next to impossible. Thanks to genetic genealogy, we can bridge those gaps. Geographic clues from your matches might get you looking in the right direction. This session includes some DNA success stories, based on geography and backed by documented research. It also offers pointers on how to get more value from your tests.

Great webinar! What encouraged me to listen to the whole thing was a photo with a plaque of the village of Sojkówek, because it's my grandmother's place of origin. I heard a great story that convinced me to do an autosomal test.
Dave Obee's presentations are always so informative and encouraging.
How about asking Dave to do a seminar on how he organizes his information, especially his trees, which he says he does as Word doc?
Dave Obee is a fantastic speaker, an encourager. You don't have to be in the same part of the world to use these techniques, but it's inspiring to see someone get it done when migrations and changes make history foggy.
Very interesting & informative to learn about the different websites to obtain information on relatives in Eastern Europe and where to get assistance in translating documents. Many thanks to Dave Obee!!!!
Another interesting webinar from Dave who always has good information to use and interesting stories
Very nice and we got some really useful infos. Many thanks !
I wish there could have been more information given on his strategies for DNA testing and maybe names of researchers he used in the various countries.
