AncestryDNA, tied into your file
DNA is the strongest thing you can add. Your matches confirm or
break the paper trail, and they lead to the cousins who hold the
photos and the stories. You order the kit from Ancestry (about
$100), spit, and mail it back. Results take about six to eight
weeks, so ordering today means they arrive while I'm still
working. When they land, I tie your matches and your ethnicity
estimate into your file and put them to work.
