The Year Ahead – April 3

 In the January/February 2024 issue of Family Tree Magazine, they have introduced The Year Ahead, 366 genealogy tips will make 2024 your best research year yet by Lisa A Alzo. Lisa mapped out a day-by-day research plan.

April 3 – Research DNA testing options ahead of DNA Day later this month. The advice on page 42 of the January/February 2024 issue of Family Tree Magazine can help.

I have seen DNA experts recommend that if money is tight, to test at Ancestry first, since they are the biggest database, then upload your RAW DNA data to MyHeritage, FTDNA and LivingDNA. It may either be free or a very small fee. Then if you get a chance test with 23andMe. Why at all these DNA testing companies, because some people only have tested at one place. It was through a match on 23andMe that gave me a copy of my Ancestry for my previously unknown biological maternal grandfather. It was Ancestry that actually helped me figure out who he was.

Remember to have fun and Just do Genealogy!
