|'''How to Use | |'''How to Use DNA to Find the Unknown Father in Sweden''' | ||
|. | |Between 1864 and 1917 it’s very difficult to find an unknown biological father in Swedish records. Gratefully, this is often within five generations to use autosomal DNA data effectively. If it’s a paternal line, a Y-DNA test might help to solve the problem. Either way, DNA combined with records can help you find the unknown biological father. This presentation will be based on a case study of Augusta Elisabeth Lindqvist who was born out of wedlock in 1884. | ||

|''' | |'''Swedish/American Immigration and DNA: A Case Study ''' | ||
| | |Our ancestors are often lost as we seek to find their country and place of origin. Americanized names, unfamiliar naming practices, lack of information in America, and language barriers can stand in the way of our success. This class will examine DNA as one additional source we can examine to help identify our ancestors and connect them to their birth country. | ||
