About this webinar
When you receive your results from any of the major testing sites you will see a relationship prediction such as 4th-6th cousin or 1st cousin twice removed-2nd cousin twice removed. What exactly do these predictions mean though? This presentation will explain all about these predictions and provide practical advice on how to interpret and make best use of them.

Excellent presentation, I learned alot and understand better things that I was familiar with.
Excellent session thanks Michelle. I liked the improvement ancestry did to adjust the relationship to the actual one. Would be good if MH did the same thing. I do the same notes on MH as Michelle. thanks for the info from LivingDNA. I have it but haven't explored it too much, probably time I did.
great, had a lot of excellent content
I thought it was great. I understand a lot more than I did from the different websites. Thanks Michelle.
Terrific as always!
Excellent. Really interesting to learn about all the newer developments in Ancestry and MyHeritage. I'm gradually identifying my matches on the 5 main sites, but it's taking time as my closest are 'only' 3rd cousins, the highest being just 76cM on Ancestry.
Everytime I hear someone explain DNA, I grasp one more tiny piece of knowledge. Thank you
Fast-paced, informative, useful. Presenter was knowledgeable and pointed out useful differences between DNA companies and their predicted relationships. Didn't realize there were so many ways to look at the same data.
