Working with Jewish DNA Testing

Working with DNA testing presents unique challenges to the Jewish genealogical community due to the fact that their ancestors have historically been an isolated population, typically marrying within their own group.
After covering the basics of DNA testing, Kitty Cooper will show us the benefits and limitations of DNA testing to trace Jewish ancestry and relationships.
