Child, Senior Genealogist of the Newbury Street Press and Editor of Mayflower Descendant at American Ancestors NEHGS, to discover how DNA testing can aide in colonial Mayflower research, which tests are most useful, and more.

Follow along as we research an Irish couple and learn all we can about them. Besides well-known records, like census, civil, church, and land, infrequently used resources like place-names, local sources and mapping tools will be covered.
