In collaboration with Calhoun County Genealogical Society, discover how Y-DNA testing can make big contributions to your genealogical research.

We’ll cover who can test, where to test, haplogroups and haplotrees, STRs and SNPs, and how to understand Y-DNA matches. We’ll also discuss surname projects and how to find one that fits your family. Presenter Ginger Ogilvie is a professional genealogist and founding co-administrator of the Ogilvy Y-DNA Surname Project through FamilyTreeDNA. This program will stream live on Willard Library's Facebook and YouTube channels.
