RLP 204: Recruiting Test Takers for an Autosomal DNA Project

Today’s episode of Research Like a Pro is about setting up a web page to share with potential DNA test takers. Nicole talks about the Daniel Arnold project to find Daniel’s parents. Daniel was born 6 August 1806 and married Lydia Willey. We discuss autosomal DNA coverage, making living people in reports anonymous, and targeted testing of people from independent child lines. We also review the current research and clues pointing to Daniel’s parents.

I enjoyed this podcast……………..could you explain to me what an Air Table is??? I guess I haven’t heard that term, or been privy to any podcasts explaining that term.

Thanks for your very informative podcasts.
