Virtual: GENEALOGY GROUP -- How I Used Gen Research & DNA Testing To Find My Birth Parents
Monday, May 1, 2023
This event will feature author Rebecca Daniels. With almost no information of her genetic heritage, adoptee Rebecca Daniels followed limited clues and used DNA testing, genealogical research, thoughtful letter writing, and a willingness to make awkward phone calls with strangers to finally find her birth parents. Daniels will offer a presentation based on her new book, "Finding Sisters: How One Adoptee Used DNA Testing and Determination to Uncover Family Secrets and Find Her Birth Family".
The Tewksbury Genealogy Group is open to everyone who's interested in genealogy. Each meeting -- which will take place via Zoom -- consists of a presentation from a guest speaker (typically a professional genealogist), followed by a period where members can briefly share their latest genealogy research, and then the library will share a genealogy resource its patrons can access for free.
NOTE: This program will be recorded. All registrants will receive the recording via email within 24 hours of the program.
