Genealogists are now using molecular genealogy--comparing and
matching people by matrilineal DNA lineages--mtDNA or patrilineal
Y-chromosome ancestry and/or racial percentages tests. People
interested in ancestry now look at genetic markers to trace the
migrations of the human species. Here's how to trace your genealogy
by DNA from your grandparents back 10,000 or more years.
Anyone can be interested in DNA for ancestry research, but of
interest to Jews from Eastern Europe is to see how different
populations from a mosaic of communities reached their current
locations. From who are you descended? What markers will shed light
on your deepest ancestry? You can study DNA for medical reasons or
to discover the geographic travels and dwelling places of some of
your ancestors.
How do Europeans in general fit into the great migrations of
prehistory that took all to where they are today based on their
genetic DNA markers and sequences? Where is the geographic center
of their origin and the roots of all people? Specifically, how can
you interpret your DNA test for family history as a beginner in
researching ancestry and your own family history?
