The Missing Branch DNA & Family History Research
A Family mystery. A DNA Test. Thousands of matches. Where do you start?
Can DNA help answer your family mystery?
What could your DNA matches reveal?
Perhaps you've taken a DNA test hoping to identify an unknown biological parent or ancestor. Maybe a family story has made you question whether a documented relationship is biologically correct. Or perhaps your DNA matches suggest a connection to a family you don't recognise.
The Missing Branch uses autosomal DNA matches, shared matches, family trees and documentary records to investigate questions about biological relationships.
Every case is different. The first step is to understand your question and look at the DNA evidence available to determine whether research may be possible.
