Semi-monthly meeting of the Elgin Genealogical Society.

Steve Szabados presents: Finding my Biological Father: a DNA and Genealogy Case Study

My DNA results did not match the paper trail and eventually proved that my mother took a secret to her grave. My biological father was not the father I grew with and no one was alive that could tell me who? I solved the mystery and now have another family tree with its share of new family stories. Join me as I describe how I used DNA and traditional genealogy tools to find my new family. How would you react if you found you had a secret family?
