Vicki Manners will be giving a presentation titled Using YDNA to identify ancestors pre-1750. 

Talk Description: Whilst many genealogists have a good working knowledge of autosomal DNA, not many have had any experience of using YDNA in tracing ancestors for clients. This one hour lunchtime lecture explors how DNA can be used to break down 'brick walls' pre 1750, using a recent case study as an example.

Speaker Bio: Vicki Manners is a professional genealogist, archivist and conservator with over 20 years' experience. Previous to becoming a genealogist, Vicki taught human biology at university level, hence her interest in using DNA to support traditional genealogical methods.

Registration details have been circulated to AGRA Members/Associates by the Secretary.
