 Chapter of Afro-American Historical & Genealogical Group, Inc. 
 
 Invites you to join us in celebrating a special presentation on
 
 African American Ancestry with our guest speaker: 
 
 Gina Paige, President & Co-Founder of African Ancestry, Inc. 
 
 February 21, 2007, 7:00-9:00 p.m.
 Mt. Zion First African Baptist Church, Fellowship Hall, 105 Lankford Avenue Charlottesville, VA
 
 Ms. Paige along with her partner, Rick Kittles, Ph.D started a Maryland based company in 2003 so African Americans could trace their ancestral roots back to a more specific location in Africa. Their work was featured in the 2006 PBS Documentary, “African American Lives” hosted by noted Harvard University scholar, Dr. Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
 
 African Ancestry will provide DNA testing kits for $275.00
