    I have been using autosomal DNA to further my genealogy research but this webinar made me aware of its limitations and gave me insight into a much broader use for DNA in tracking my ancestors' path from their points of origin to their arrival in Europe. Very informative!

    Need to gain more basic understanding of the DNA and haplo groups.
