Forensic Genealogy and DNA &
Genealogy and 30 Best Photo
Quizzes are must-haves for any
genealogist interested in creative
ways of solving family mysteries.
Forensic scientists and
genealogists share the same goal–
to find out who was who, and who
did what and when. In explaining
how to analyze photographs, to
mine databases, and to use DNA
analysis to reveal family history,
Forensic Genealogy emphasizes the
creative parts of an investigation
over the mechanics. Have you
ever thought of looking at the
edges of old photographs to find
out if they are from the same roll,
or the backs to place them in
chronological order? Have you
considered looking at a city
directory to figure out if your
ancestor and his wife lost any
children? How about using DNA
analysis to tie your family to the
history and politics of a religious
conflict? Click here for more
information on Forensic Genealogy.
DNA & Genealogy follows with the
details on what DNA analysis is
and how it can be used to reach
beyond conventional
documentation to find new family
relationships. DNA & Genealogy
has something for everyone, the
basics for "Newbies" just getting
their feet wet, as well as info on
cladograms and surname structure
for experienced researchers
already administering their own
surname studies. Everyone will
enjoy the interesting sidebars on
"DNA in the News" and "Weird
DNA" that include explanations of
cloning, gene, descriptions of the
DNA analysis of the Tyrolean Ice
Man, and the specifics of exo-
biology DNA. Click here for more
information on DNA & Genealogy.
Our 30 Best PhotoQuizzes CD is
based on the weekly forensic
photo quizzes we host on our
website. Whether you take
advantage of the hint provided
with each quiz, or you head
straight for the answer, you will
learn fascinating new techniques
you can use to analyze your family
pictures. You will never look at
an old photograph the same way
again! Click here for more
