See extent DNA matched, conclusions and next family history research steps at LINEAGES CONFIRMED BY DNA. You can also view the “snapshot” lineages and locations where ancestors resided thru links on the Lineages Confirmed page. To further study family history, links to research project reports can also be accessed here.
WHERE TO FIND UPDATED INFORMATION IN THE DNA STUDY
Be sure to check the following sections of the STUDY to keep abreast of changes and new information:
INTRODUCTION This page comes up when you open the DNA STUDY on-line.
VIRTUAL ARCHIVE As new lineages are posted it will only take a few minutes to see if there is anything new. These can be accessed by using a drop down menu where you can select geographic locations where you would like to review lineages and you can search for any term using your own browser, such as names and places that fit with your research interests.
DNA FINDINGS - LINEAGES CONFIRMED This will note the latest lineages tested and findings that are available.
LINEAGE STUDIES - SPECIAL STUDIES This will be an overview of a specific COMBS branch, research goals outlined, study learnings, descendancy and the research reports available in the family history part of our research project.
Throughout the project and study we have tried to link to the different parts of both the Research Project and the Study to help further family history research.
We now have a Study that integrates family history with DNA findings. This will be developed further over time and as there are new developments in the field of DNA as it relates to family history, we will see they are presented here. Remember we have many people who have tested and are waiting to find matches. If you are considering testing, please contact Denise Mortorff for further information at n2rpast@sbcglobal.net.
