DNA results can confirm relationships and family traditions. It can help settle genealogical questions. When we determine which families have a connection, we save time and effort. We avoid research in the wrong location. For some of us, it may be the only way to determine where to look for an ancestor’s parents. DNA matches also provide an opportunity to find others researching a common ancestor.
