(14,858 posts)5. Yes, I joined pretty early on
as we were forming the 501c3. It's very challenging. I'm more genealogist than DNA expert. I mostly build trees, do quality control on the developing lines, and search for common ancestors in different lines.

(24,013 posts)6. The genealogy piece of this whole story
is what fascinated me. Its a difficult job. Ive worked on my family tree and its tough to not go down rabbit holes...for me anyway. Genealogists got this done.
