docuI am a D.A.R. several times I have all information as to where they came
from and their names....D.N.A. served me nicely since the D.N.A. matches my
research of 25 years...I feel for any one who has not done their
research.....mine is a perfect fit just surprised I don't have a higher per
cent for the British people in my D.N.A. my Irish people showed up with a
high number so did my German people.....I was very happy with the result I
am 3 percent Jewish which I can not recognize through research since the
Jewish blood might have been through my grandmothers....Who knows I might
find out got my fingers crossed..........mine was worth the money.......I am
Daughter of the American Revolution several time.......I am proud of my
people....

Shannon Combs-Bennett T2 Family History
Do you have DNA results and wonder what to do with them - or perhaps wonder
whether it is worth the expense to take the DNA tests and if so which one?
This seminar, in four parts, will provide a general introduction to DNA
Genealogy and include sections on understanding mtDNA, Y-DNA, and Autosomal
DNA results. Whether you are a novice or experienced, this is an opportunity
to enhance your understanding of DNA genealogy and new developments in the
field. There will be two breaks (morning and afternoon) and a lunch break of
1-1/2 hours on your own in historic Leesburg.
Shannon Combs-Bennett, owner of T2 Family History, writes and lectures on a
variety of topics from genetics to methodology. Based in Northern Virginia,
Shannon is a frequent contributor to Family Tree Magazine; Creative Director
for The In-Depth Genealogist Website Magazine, and Education Chair for
NextGen Genealogy Network. In December of 2016 she completed her
Professional Learning Certificate in Genealogical Studies (PLCGS) and
Certificate in American Records from the National Institute for Genealogical
Studies (NIGS). Combs-Bennett is the author of A Genealogist's Guide to the
Washington DC Area. She holds a BS in Biology and has a Certificate in
Genealogical Research from Boston University. Currently she is studying for
her MSc in Genealogical, Paleographic, and Heraldic studies from the
