How to Interpret Your DNA Test Results for Family History and Ancestry: Scientists Speak Out on Genealogy Joining Genetics
by Anne HartHow do you interpret your own DNA test results? How do you write, tape, and transcribe an oral history? Assuming you're a beginner in genealogy with no science background and interested in family history, where do you begin your search? What's the cultural component behind a trait as biological as your genes? If you're a family historian, an oral history researcher, or a person fascinated with ancestry, here's how to understand the results of DNA tests. Different people have different, sometimes opposite opinions on whether DNA testing is a useful tool in the hands of family historians. If you are a carrier of a genetic disorder, DNA testing is useful in researching your family history to find out who was the first carrier in your ancestry back in time. Here the debate unfolds as scientists, authors, physicians, media people, owners of DNA testing companies, genealogists, historians and researchers comment, write, and opine on DNA testing and genealogy. How do you use DNA testing to interpret family history records? How eager are people to take a DNA test for family history research? Most DNA tests require only that someone swish mouthwash around in his or her mouth and send it for testing to a laboratory. So what can a DNA test really tell you about your own ancestry-distant or not so distant? And most of all, how do you interpret and use the results?
