Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the historical context surrounding mental health and women's rights in the 19th century.

  • RLP 331: Using GEDmatch DNA Segment Tools in a Research Project
    Nov 11 2024
    In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Nicole and Diana discuss using DNA segment data in a research project. Diana shares her experience working on a chromosome map in DNA Painter for several years, gradually adding matches identified as descending from one of her ancestral couples. She focuses on her Cline DNA research project, where she seeks genetic evidence to confirm her hypothesis that John C. Cline is the father of Clemsy (Cline) Weatherford. Diana details her process of identifying a Cline network on Ancestry DNA and using GEDmatch's segment search and triangulation tools to find shared segments and potential connections. Through her research, Diana discovered a shared DNA segment on chromosome 22 with a match named Jane, who also descends from Clemsy Cline. This breakthrough allowed her to identify the segment as originating from the Cline/Weatherford line and paint it on her DNA Painter chromosome map. By triangulating the data, she found additional DNA matches sharing the segment, opening up new avenues for exploration and potential confirmation of her hypothesis about Clemsy's parentage. Listeners will learn valuable tips for using DNA segment data and GEDmatch tools in their own research projects. This summary was generated by Google Gemini.
