The Genealogist's Guide to Y-DNA Testing for Genetic Genealogy Paperback – March 4, 2020

Master a new science like a genealogist!DNA testing for clues to one's ancestry is perhaps the most exciting new development to hit genealogy since the invention of the census. Y-DNA testing can explore a paternal line back hundreds of thousands of years, but until now its use for genealogy has largely been masked behind complex and scientific test results. In this first book for genealogists devoted solely to Y-DNA testing, David Vance explains this powerful tool for genealogy in easy-to-follow chapters. The book is divided into three sections: Section One introduces Y-DNA testing for those with no DNA testing experience at all; Section Two explains Y-DNA fundamentals for those just getting started or wanting to know what their test results mean to their genealogy, and Section Three touches lightly on the genetics and the science underlying this fascinating new field.Written with humor and a genealogist's experience, The Genealogist's Guide to Y-DNA Testing for Genetic Genealogy is sure to become a well-thumbed reference for every genealogist looking to break through the mysteries of Y-DNA!
