Family History Daily Articles
Here are just a few examples of useful articles.
- Ancestry's ThruLines™ DNA Tool. This tool links Ancestry family trees with DNA matches in a very clear way. However, it doesn't do all the work for you so you might find this Family History Daily article very useful.
- Not to be outdone by Ancestry, MyHeritage has a similarly useful tool called "Theory of Family Relativity™". This tool uses a variety of sources to help you find a common ancestor, including family tree information, historical records and your DNA matches in MyHeritage. As for Ancestry, this tool will only bring up meaningful results if you have a family tree developed in MyHeritage. Check the MyHeritage Tool Article in Family History Daily.
- Of course before using either of the above tips you need to have a family tree. Here are some dos and don'ts to keep in mind when setting up yours. Genealogy Dos and Don'ts, for example; interview family members, make sure you have reliable sources, don't copy other people's family trees willy nilly and whatever else don't get sidetracked! The latter could be one of the reasons people sometimes abandon genealogy research, nowadays there is so much information online it is all too easy to be overwhelmed. So, stay on track and focussed.
