   A fantastic presentation by Grant Din on his searches, wonderful genealogical finds, and connecting with his Chinese family.\n\nAbsolutely fascinating! BTW, one of my cousins showed up in my Ancestry.com matches just a day or two ago. When I messaged her, she said that one of her daughters who has been teaching English in S Korea for 4-5 years, wanted to have her DNA done -- but it's ILLEGAL IN S KOREA TO HAVE YOUR DNA TESTED, so she had a kit sent to both her Mom and Dad for Christmas! We have no idea how wonderful the US is -- despite our problems!!\n\nAlthough as far as I know, I do not have any Asian ancestors I found this very interesting & gives one hope for my genealogy. \n\nAmazing, helpful, wonderful presenter! And so great to finally be able to connect with folks who are doing research on Chinese American genealogy. BTW, Grant Din's handout is exceptional, so generous in his sharing of information!\n\nChinese genealogy is so difficult, but Grant made it seem approachable. Excellent presentation. His presentation also highlighted the xenophobic history of the US - an important reminder.\n\nExcellent!!\n\nFantastic webinar with lots of great information on tracing Chinese family members.\n\nGood information with resources shared. I will use to assist my cousins who have a grandfather who immigrated from China in the 1920’s. \n\nGrant did a great job making a very complex subject accessible and inspiring!\n\nGrant Din is the best!\n\nGrant Din was a knowledgeable, thoughtful presenter sharing lots of useful resources.\n\nGrant Din's presentation and images were very informative. Fascinating storyteller. Thank you for offering this webinar, which also promotes education about the history of Chinese immigrants in America.\n\nGrant gave a wonderful seminar\n\nGrant provided important details in how to research your family tree. Thank you Grant!\n\nGrant was informative, positive, and encouraging to the audience.\n\nGreat info!\n\nGreat information\n\nGreat information - thank you!\n\nHelps me in researching my wife's heritage. \n\nI don't have any Chinese in my family tree but this webinar was informative.\n\nI don't have Chinese ancestors that I know of but this was a very interesting Webinar.
