About us
- to provide a tool to help those with Bohemian Jewish ancestors to combine genealogical information from the GENI tree with Family Finder autosomal-DNA and Y-DNA data. Members can annotate all direct ancestors on the GENI Tree with their Family Finder Kit number (and Gedmatch if used) , so that anyone looking at the GENI tree can immediately try to compare their autosomal DNA
- to investigate the best way to analyze Family Finder DNA from close-knot Jewish Communities, by selecting a manageable group of testers with defined Bohemian Jewish ancestry . One hope is that by selecting people from the same village (easily found on GENI Tree), or who are known to have intermarriages, even if they do not know that they share direct ancestors, one might identify shorter segments that are of significance.
- to provide a way of Jewish Bohemian descendants to discuss and collaborate on how to best utilize their DNA data
It is highly recommended that anyone with DNA results on FamilyFinder should show their Bohemian ancestors on family trees associated with their Kit ID. Also, if they are not there already there, it is suggested that they add these ancestral lines to Geni Tree, and add their Test Kit numbers to the Profiles on Geni Tree. So when someone finds your ancestor on Geni Tree, they can immediately also compare DNA results.
