Background:
Autosomal DNA, Y-DNA, and Mitochondrial DNA all have family
secrets hidden in their results from testing. You just have to know where
to search for the clues that might lead to some amazing discoveries!
In Natalie Boyer’s presentation, she reveals stories of
unexpected ethnicity results, surprising paternal results and how DNA proved a
relationship 8 generations back. There are surprising stories around
every corner and twists to most everyone’s DNA results. Find out how she
used these results to break down brick walls and help other’s reveal their true
parental path.
Natalie is an avid genealogist who has been searching her roots for 40 years. At the age of 10, she would spend hours at the local library combing through books and microfilm in search of just one more ancestor and then maybe, just maybe, one more after that. Her husband, Rick, equates genealogy to the online gaming industry where every generation you go back is another level achieved.
Her love of genealogy and family history grew even more when online records began to surface. When her husband renewed her subscription to Ancestry.com about 6 years ago, she developed a love of genetic genealogy and has been on a quest to break down brick walls and unravel mysteries long hidden in the past, both for herself and others.
Professionally, she works at Procter and Gamble but dreams of the day when she can retire and focus her attention on genealogy and genetic genealogy.
