0f216a3d-0456-49e5-93db-5ffdbd78f70e

From understanding your Y DNA test results (and making sense of all those numbers!), through to mastering the methodology, understanding how to use the key tools, and getting to grips with Y DNA projects, John Cleary’s DNA Masterclass has it covered.

Have you taken a Y DNA test, but you are not sure how to use it your genealogy research?
Perhaps you find your Y DNA results (all those numbers) confusing or are surprised by how few matches you have?
Maybe you have heard of - or joined - Y DNA projects, but you’re not sure how to make best use of them?
Possibly you would like to run your own project to investigate your surname or Y-lineage?

If any of these situations strike a chord then John Cleary’s DNA Masterclass is a very good fit for you.

John’s two-part DNA Masterclass will:
•    Guide you through the methods and tools to exploit your Y DNA test results better.
•    Look at online tools to investigate your Y haplogroups.
•    Show you how to use different kinds of Y DNA reference trees available online.
•    Explain the most efficient ways to use the results from a 37 or 111 marker test.
•    Clarify which benefits come from upgrading to the Big Y.
•    In addition, John will look at how you can run a small-scale surname project for your own immediate surnames of interest, as well as how to tap into the big established surname and haplogroup projects.

There will be hands-on exercises guided by the instructor, and we will finish with a peep into what the future might hold for Y DNA testing.

How to take part in the DNA Masterclass:
The DNA Masterclass will take place on Zoom on Thursday 20 and 27 February 2025, 6.30pm UK time with John Cleary.
