this first.
If you are new to both DNA and traditional genealogical research you
need to learn about both - they must be used together. The lists below will
help you with DNA. Here's a link with some tips to help you get you started on

GENEALOGY-DNA at RootsWeb (Began October 2002)
The original, pioneer list founded by Ann P. Turner; Jim Bullock is now the
list administrator.
The posts and archives can be intimidating. Now days there are many, many posts
about anthrogenealogy (deep/ancient ancestry) but all are welcome. Skim the
archives before you join the list:
