The six talks delivered at the Genetics and Genealogy Workshop at the Archives of Ontario in September are now available to watch on YouTube.
The all-day workshop was hosted by Professor Julia Creet of York University, who created the workshop to help people better understand the evolving and critically important subject of genetics and genealogy.
