What's Happening

April 24 (Thur): Kino Mesquite room at 1pm. DNA Skills workshop. Upload your DNA test results from AncestryDNA, FamilyTreeDNA. 23andMe, and/or Living DNA to MyHeritage, before the workshop. This type of workshop only works if everyone is using the same program. Look under the DNA download tab on how to do this. If you need help uploading, please contact me before the day of the workshop. There will not be any time to help with uploads at the workshop.

These are the topics we will be covering:

Basic site navigation of MyHeritage DNA - Looking at the topics under the different tabs.
Concentration on DNA matches: Navigating your DNA match list, Exploring your individual matches, Finding DNA matches outside of the US. (MyHeritage is the #1 DNA kit sold in Europe.)
Using the Leeds Method to identify groups of your DNA matches who probably share a common ancestor. This is helpful for identifying potential relationships when dealing with unknown parentage and cases of breaking through brickwalls. You will be using your DNA matches and shared matches.

Please RSVP so I will have enough handouts. I have prepared a few for the workshop. Susan Lafo - [email protected]. Hope to see you there. If the email is hidden, it's slqcgenclub @ gmail.com. No spaces before or after the @. Hope to see you there!

Our Genealogy Club enjoys friendly discussions and information. We have exchanges that extend members’ knowledge of genealogy, research options, and methods. Experience the thrill of uncovering your lineage and family history. Learn from residents highly experienced in genealogy and well-known guest speakers. We heartily welcome QC residents and visitors with all levels of experience, from beginner to expert.

The Club meets the first Wednesday of every month at 10:00 am, in the Ocotillo Room. From September to May we have monthly speakers. During the summer months, we meet for educational workshops. Four times a year, workshops are held on the third Thursday of the month at 1 pm.

Membership dues are $15 per year for single membership and $25 per year for dual membership. The year begins on January 1.

Non-Members are invited to attend two events, workshops, or field-trips per year at $5 per person per event before becoming members.

So, if you are wondering: "Who are my ancestors? Where did they come from? Then this is the club for you.

At the left is our QC Genealogy Club logo. It is a picture of a family which was taken in 1857. From this family a six-generation lineage flowed, with more than 28,000 direct relatives. Thousands of them are still alive today. They were joyfully linked up by a team of *amateur* genealogists. They used all of the modern lineage-researching methods, tools and options which our club teaches to its members.
