AUDIO Episode 279 - DNA Painter and Resolving Conflicting Birthdates

AUDIO PODCAST: I've got two great genealogy topics and interviews for you in this audio podcast episode. First up we’re going to tackle the problem of conflicting birthdates. When you find different dates in a variety of genealogical records, how do you decide which one to record in your family tree database? Well, you have to do more digging and analysis! So, we’re going to talk about:
- Reasons for Birthdate Discrepancies in Genealogy
- 5 Questions You Should Ask About Conflicting Birthdates
- Birth Record Substitutes
- Case Study Strategies for Solving Conflicting Birthdates
Then we’re going to switch gears and take a look at a popular online DNA tool called DNA Painter and who better to tell us about that than the creator of the shared centimorgans project on DNApainter.com, Genetic Genealogist Blaine Bettinger. He’s going to explain DNA Painter, the Shared Centimorgans tool, and what he sees coming next in genetic genealogy.

I'm suddenly getting bombarded on Ancestry by men saying hi. No DNA connection, no family tree.
