Fran Shockley, the Family Story Sleuth, will demonstrate the Leeds Method of sorting unknown DNA matches.  These matches will then be placed into a tree specifically created to verify biological connections.  This method is very useful for adoptees and for breaking down those "brick walls". This hands-on workshop will be very helpful to those of you who have already had your DNA done.

While AI (artificial intelligence) might be the current “hot” buzz word, the fact is that many genealogy vendors and even genealogists have already been using this technology for years. The AI industry is at a crossroads and within the next five years, it will permeate almost every aspect of business and society. Learn how AI is currently being used to improve the genealogy experience, and whether or not you should seek out other uses of artificial intelligence for your own genealogy research.
