Presenter: Karen Franklin, Kelly Moore

Kelly Moore was raised in Albany, New York. A Catholic child, she was told at an early age that she was adopted. In her mid-twenties, she started the search for her birth parents. A simple Familytreedna test yielded surprising results - she had many Jewish matches, and one extremely close match to Jon Stedman. Kelly got in touch with Karen Franklin, the contact on Familytreedna. Jon had died five years earlier, and Karen and upgraded the dna. Karen was able to provide Jon's research tracing their German Jewish family history back to mid 18th C. In this lecture, Karen and Kelly will describe the dna analysis and matching methodology, which would be of interest to all genealogists interested in dna issues, and share the story of Kelly's reunion with her birth parents.
