By Sharon Happel Have you seen all the news about DNA testing and Family tree building websites? Are you curious how it all works? Come get a first-hand look at how to build your own family tree, find your ancestors historical records and learn the secrets your DNA holds. If you've been thinking about doing a DNA test, this is a great time to try it. The three major DNA companies: AncestryDNA, 23andMe and FamilyTreeDNA are all having Holiday Sales right now. Take your test now and then attend our informational session January 12 to learn what you can do with your DNA results! Crystal Coder, Researcher for Ohana Ancestry, will guide us through the ins and outs of building family trees, finding historical records and finding lost relatives with DNA. She will also share with us how she has assisted in several searches that have located birth parents, half siblings, double cousins and more.
