Big Y for Real-World Genealogy: Using Case Studies to Demonstrate Y-DNA Tools

Big Y testing has provided me with unique insights across several branches of my own family, revealing patterns and answers that traditional research alone couldn’t uncover. This talk explores how Big Y goes beyond haplotree placement to pinpoint lineages, identify ancestral clusters, distinguish between unrelated surname lines, or show that lines once assumed to be closely related are actually more distantly connected than previously thought. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the tools available, particularly Discover™ reports, and how to apply them to their own research.
