Genealogy is a fascinating way to take a look back at our family’s background and heritage. Knowing where we come from is a fundamental way of knowing who we are, allowing us to develop a deeper appreciation for the ancestors who came long before us. Whether you’ve been studying your family tree for years or know next to nothing about your heritage, there is always more to learn when we dive into the past. Over the last several years, genetic testing with a genealogy-focused approach have gained immense popularity due to their accessibility and profound insights, empowering thousands to trace back their family heritage to near prehistoric times. If you’ve ever wanted to learn more about how this technology connects us with the past, join the NJ State Library for their latest upcoming webinar, “Diving Deep into Genetic Genealogy”.

On Wednesday, August 2nd, the New Jersey State Library will be hosting a deep dive on all things genetic testing and genealogy. The webinar will be held virtually on Zoom from 12:00pm through 1:30pm. This event is free to attend, although advanced registration is required. If you plan on attending, you can register by visiting the link here: Register – Webinar. Once you are registered, just sign onto the portal the day of the webinar and you’ll be ready to learn!
