What can DNA tell you about your ancestors?
How does it help us to discover who they were and where they were from?
Join us at PRONI for a day of DNA stories and advice. Take a DNA test (special show prices available) and be part of the story.
Free entry and no need to book.
DNA experts will be available to advise you how to start your own DNA story. And if you have already done a DNA test, bring your questions to get answers!
Martin McDowell from the North of Ireland Family History Society will illustrate what you can learn about your ancestors from a simple cheek swab.
