Mondays with Myrt are Back!

I first heard of the news on Randy Seaver's Genea-Musings blog. The details of everything are linked on his blog post. But, I will say the live event will be on YouTube. As opposed to attending live on Zoom and the recording on YouTube afterwards. (And I know it has been live-streamed on YouTube before on occasions but without viewers in the Zoom meeting).

Sidenote: Last year, I noticed her original YouTube channel or account was deleted for some reason, and I couldn’t find a public announcement saying that had occurred. But on her new channel, past recordings are starting to appear, which is great. So she likely archived hundreds of virtual recordings.


*Update : I watched a little bit of the replay on Youtube. It was stated by DearMyrtle herself, that she had Daniel Loftus, a panelist, archive her YT videos and deleted her YT channel, it is now slowly re-uploading them again.

Having a DNA Plan in Place

Do you want to test more relatives? Do you want to incorporate DNA into your research project? If you said yes to any of these questions, it's time to start creating a plan. Like all great plans, start with a great question. Ask yourself this question: What is your goal or research problem?   For example, you could ask the following: Who is the father of William Jackson?   Once you have your goal or question, it's officially time to say: "What DNA Test Should I (or relative) Take?" Here is a reminder of the 3 types of DNA tested: Y-DNA- Direct paternal  line . Pass down Y Chromosome from father to son. Mitochondrial DNA- Direct maternal line. Mt Chromosone passed down to daughter and son. But stops at the son. Autosomal DNA- DNA   passed down from all lines. Each generation will pass less and less DNA and eventually will be zero. The BIG 5 DNA companies offer the following DNA tests: Autosomal DNA Primarily a British...
