DNA Features at WikiTree with Emma MacBeath The Research Like a Pro Genealogy Podcast

This episode of Research Like a Pro focuses on the DNA features available on Wikitree, with guest Emmaline MacBeath, a genetic genealogist, explaining them. Diana and Nicole, discuss with Emmaline the various DNA tools and functionalities on Wikitree.
One key feature is the ability to mark relationships as "DNA confirmed" by providing evidence from DNA matches. Users can also record the DNA tests they've taken on their profiles, which propagates to ancestors and descendants within a certain genetic distance. WikiTree displays connections to other members who have taken the same DNA tests, enabling comparisons.
Another useful tool is the "DNA Descendancy View," which lists an ancestor's descendants and indicates those who have taken DNA tests. This helps identify potential test-takers for specific lineages. The "Relationship Finder" allows users to explore how they are related to others, even triangulating relationships using multiple matches.
Emmaline highlights the privacy controls on WikiTree, enabling safe sharing of DNA information. The "G2G Forum" provides a community space to ask questions and seek assistance with DNA interpretations. Overall, WikiTree offers a range of collaborative DNA features to enhance genealogical research and connect with genetic cousins.
