NEXT MONTHLY SGS MEETING – June 17
Featured speaker will be member Kevin Mittge on DNA for Genealogists.
A very basic look at what DNA is, what DNA can do for you, what it can’t do for you, what companies will test your DNA, what tests they provide and for how much, and what your results will look like.  Sure to be an informative presentation!
