May 23, 2026 Monthly Meeting
Our next Monthly Meeting is scheduled for Saturday, May 23 at 10 AM in the Carmack Room at the Central Resource Library, and will feature the topic:
Search Angel Group: Genetic Genealogist Who Works With DNA to Solve Biological Mysteries
Presented by Retta Whinnery
Have you ever wondered how people who are adopted and have no access to paper records can figure out who their biological parents are? Taking a DNA test could be the key. There are DNA Search Angel groups who help people who are adopted, or donor-conceived, or have taken a DNA test and learned that they are not related to half of their known family. DNA Search Angels are genetic genealogists who can work with your DNA matches to build genetic networks to solve biological mysteries.
This JCGS meeting is free, and is open to the public.
