NHSOG – Fall Conference with Blaine Bettinger
October 19 @ 9:30 am - 3:00 pm
$50 – $70Blaine Bettinger “The Genetic Genealogist” Will be the Featured Speaker at our Fall Conference
Saturday 19 October 2024, 9:30–3:00 at the Puritan Backroom Conference Center, in Manchester, N.H.
Blaine will give three presentations:
-
Understanding the DNA Testing Company Websites and Tools — Together we will explore the genetic genealogy company offerings, including the tools and analyses offered by the testing companies themselves. This will help us determine which tests and tools are best for our particular research question.
-
Using Autosomal DNA for 18th and 19th Century Mysteries — Even though our 18th and 19th century ancestors have been dead for decades, their DNA still survives in their descendants. Learn how to use autosomal DNA to attack and potentially solve genealogical mysteries and brick walls for ancestors who were born or lived in the 1800’s, 1700’s, and beyond.
-
Using Artificial Intelligence Tools for Genealogy — Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is a valuable new tool for genealogists, potentially saving 100s of hours a year and offering new ways to organize our research. However, these tools have important limitations that must be understood in order to utilize them properly and efficiently. We will cover the benefits and limitations of generative AI, and how you can explore this entirely new field without becoming overwhelmed!
