Meeting
Genealogist Jarrett Ross will speak over Zoom about techniques on overcoming issues from endogamy when dealing with DNA results, especially for people with Jewish ancestry. Confirming new family and expanding one’s tree using Jewish genetic genealogy is difficult, especially when it comes to endogamy, the practice of marrying within the same community that can lead to thousands of DNA matches.
