The Research Like a Pro Genealogy Podcast: Recent Episodes
Nicole Dyer
Research Like a Pro is a podcast about genealogy research methodology. Diana Elder and Nicole Dyer of FamilyLocket.com discuss how to take your family history research to the next level and uncover more of your family tree. Learn about research objectives, analysis, locality research, research planning, source citations, report writing, case studies, and more. Diana and Nicole are the mother-daughter team at FamilyLocket.com and the creators of the Amazon bestselling book, Research Like a Pro: A Genealogist's Guide. Diana created the Research Like a Pro method after becoming an Accredited Genealogy professional through the International Commission for the Accreditation of Professional Genealogists. Discover the process that a professional genealogist uses and make progress on your own brick walls.
In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Nicole and Diana discuss using DNA segment data in a research project. Diana shares her experience working on a chromosome map in DNA Painter for several years, gradually adding matches identified as descending from one of her ancestral couples. She focuses on her Cline DNA research project, where she seeks genetic evidence to confirm her hypothesis that John C. Cline is the father of Clemsy (Cline) Weatherford. Diana details her process of identifying a Cline network on Ancestry DNA and using GEDmatch's segment search and triangulation tools to find shared segments and potential connections.
Through her research, Diana discovered a shared DNA segment on chromosome 22 with a match named Jane, who also descends from Clemsy Cline. This breakthrough allowed her to identify the segment as originating from the Cline/Weatherford line and paint it on her DNA Painter chromosome map. By triangulating the data, she found additional DNA matches sharing the segment, opening up new avenues for exploration and potential confirmation of her hypothesis about Clemsy's parentage. Listeners will learn valuable tips for using DNA segment data and GEDmatch tools in their own research projects.

Nicole and Diana discuss Diana's recent project on Isabella Weatherford, demonstrating how she used both traditional methods and AI assistance to log her research effectively. Diana reviews the research plan she created using AI, including the objective to examine the economic and social conditions in Dallas County, Texas, in the early 1870s and their influence on Isabella's life and marriage prospects. Diana followed the research plan, beginning with county histories. She used Claude, an AI assistant, to transcribe and summarize the dense text, which provided valuable insights into the history and economics of the area. Next, Diana searched newspapers and the census. She located the Weatherford family in the 1860 census but had difficulty finding them in 1870. Diana expanded her search to Missouri and finally found the family in Camden County with misspellings and indexing errors. Her tax research revealed valuable information about Isabella's father's property and tax obligations. Diana also investigated migration patterns and how the development of railroads, such as the Texas and Pacific Railway, might have impacted Isabella's family's movements.
Listeners will learn how to use AI to assist with research logging, specifically how to transcribe and summarize historical texts, and also how to use traditional research methods such as newspapers, census records, and tax records.

In this episode of the Research Like a Pro Genealogy podcast, Diana and Nicole discuss the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in genealogy. Diana shares that she took a course on AI and read the book "Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI" by Ethan Mollick, finding it to be helpful and informative.
The book discusses the history of AI and how it can be used. The author emphasizes the importance of experimenting with AI to learn its capabilities and limitations. He provides four rules for working with AI: always invite AI to the table, be the human in the loop, treat AI like a person, and assume this is the worst AI you'll ever use.
Diana and Nicole then discuss the different ways AI can be used in genealogy, such as brainstorming ideas, transcribing documents, and providing feedback on research reports. They emphasize the importance of human oversight when using AI and stress that it should be seen as a tool to enhance, not replace, human expertise.
Listeners will learn about the potential benefits and limitations of using AI in genealogy and gain practical tips for incorporating it into their research process.

She began with extensive documentary research, identifying Clemsy's likely family: father John C. Cline, siblings Jacob, John, and Mahala, and half-siblings Jesse, Abner, Ann, and Amanda.
She then incorporated DNA evidence, using tools like the Leeds Method and network graphs with Gephi software. Nicole clustered DNA matches for her cousin Lucretia, confirming Mahala (Cline) Shockley as Clemsy's sister.
Adding multiple test-takers, including Diana, Lucretia, and their cousin Gary, expanded coverage of Clemsy’s genome. They identified significant matches within the predicted range, supporting the hypothesis. Further verification involved analyzing DNA matches connected to Clemsy and Henderson Weatherford’s descendants, establishing a solid foundation for their hypothesis.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro, Diana and Nicole discuss the challenges of genealogical research in areas with severe record loss, using northeastern Arkansas counties as a case study. They offer five tips to help researchers make progress despite such setbacks. They advise starting by understanding the extent of the record loss, suggesting sources like the FamilySearch Wiki to determine what records might still exist despite events like fires or floods. They emphasize the importance of seeking alternate jurisdictions when county records are unavailable, exploring other jurisdictions such as state or federal records, or private entities like churches and newspapers. They recommend utilizing the FamilySearch Catalog to find digitized records from various jurisdictions, including federal censuses, land records, and tax records. Diana and Nicole stress the need to extract every possible clue from available records, keeping a detailed research log and using tables and maps to organize and visualize the data. Finally, they highlight the importance of comparing and correlating data from different sources to piece together family histories, demonstrating these strategies with an example from Diana's research on Clemsy (Cline) Weatherford’s family. Through these discussions, they illustrate how perseverance and meticulous attention to detail can yield significant genealogical insights even in areas with significant record loss.

Diana and Nicole discuss BanyanDNA, a tool for analyzing complex family relationships in genetic genealogy. Leah Larkin introduced BanyanDNA in December 2023, highlighting its unique ability to identify unknown ancestors and alert users to discrepancies in family trees. Diana shares her experience with her own family tree, where her great-grandparents' siblings married each other, creating double cousins. She builds a tree using BanyanDNA, adding DNA matches from various test-takers, and finds the horizontal tree orientation helpful for visualizing relationships.
They explain that BanyanDNA allows adding DNA matches from any testing company and evaluates shared DNA to highlight discrepancies in documented relationships. The tool runs statistical simulations to compare expected DNA inheritance with actual data, providing insights into the accuracy of the family tree structure.
They discuss recent updates to BanyanDNA, including new calculation modes: VALIDATION and HYPOTHESES. Validation runs check if DNA matches support the documented tree, while hypotheses runs focus on the person of interest with potential unknown ancestors. These updates improve the speed and accuracy of BanyanDNA results.

In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Diana and Nicole explore the use of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and WikiTree in genealogical research. They explain that mtDNA is inherited from our mothers, with only females passing it on, and how it differs from autosomal DNA by coming from a distant maternal ancestor. They discuss how mtDNA testing reveals haplogroups, genetic population groups with a common ancestor, and share their personal testing experiences with 23andMe, FamilyTree DNA, and Living DNA, highlighting the northern European origins of their haplogroup, U5b1c2b.
The hosts emphasize that while mtDNA changes very little over generations, making it difficult to pinpoint recent common ancestors, it is useful for confirming or refuting specific female ancestral lines. They discuss integrating DNA information into WikiTree, a collaborative and free online platform, which allows users to add mtDNA haplogroups to family profiles, enhancing genealogical research by sharing DNA data with other researchers.
They provide practical tips for getting started on WikiTree, including creating a login, adding ancestors, and integrating DNA information from various testing services. They also highlight unique features of WikiTree, such as the DNA Ancestors view, which shows the inheritance of different types of DNA from ancestors. This episode offers valuable insights into using mtDNA and WikiTree as powerful tools in genealogical research.

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.

In the podcast episode of "Research Like Pro," Betsy Ko, a mentor and leader of the WikiTree Events Committee, discusses her background and role at WikiTree. Betsy began her genealogy journey influenced by a family belief related to historical ties and deepened her commitment by studying genealogical principles. She participates in projects focused on England, Scotland, Wales, and Canada, leads the Events Committee, mentors new members, and hosts livecasts.
WikiTree itself was described as a platform where users can collaborate on building a single, shared family tree. Starting an account on WikiTree is straightforward, with different types of accounts available to suit user needs. The platform encourages collaborative and enjoyable genealogical research, supported by rules that facilitate productive engagement. Users can upload GEDCOM files to streamline the process of adding extensive genealogical data.
Features on WikiTree include a search function, a surname index page, and detailed ancestor profiles that show change logs and identification numbers. Editing profiles is guided by standards to ensure accuracy and necessitates adding sources. New profile creation requires careful duplication review and source documentation. Special features like the relationship and connection finders help explore familial connections, and free space profiles allow for documenting broader family narratives. The integration of DNA with genealogy on WikiTree was briefly mentioned, promising more detailed coverage in a future episode.

In this podcast episode, Diana and Nicole talk with guest Michelle Mickelson, AG, about the significance of the Homestead Act of 1862 in spurring westward expansion and its implications for genealogy. They explore how this act allowed people to claim and cultivate land in states like Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah, and discuss how genealogists can access these land records through the National Archives, Bureau of Land Management’s General Land Office, and state archives. The documents typically include crucial details such as land location, descriptions, and proof of improvements, essential for tracing ancestry. The episode also covers the complexities of understanding land grant documents, the influence of Spanish and Mexican governance on land grants, and modern tools like GIS for mapping ancestral properties. Additionally, they discuss related topics such as mining and agricultural records, irrigation and water rights, and offer practical advice for accessing and interpreting these records to uncover more about one's ancestors.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the story of Eliza Ann Isenhour (1850-1898) and the family lore that claims she was a full-blooded Cherokee. The conversation starts with the 1884 incident that left Eliza a widow with four young children and another on the way after her husband, William Henderson Shults, died following an accident. Faced with the challenges of widowhood, Eliza remarries Jacob Meek, and they eventually move to Indian Territory, where she dies in 1898. Despite family stories, evidence suggests Eliza was not Cherokee.
Diana and Nicole talk about Eliza's early life, born in Arkansas, her family's relocation following her father's death, and her eventual move to Texas. They highlight the family's migration to Coryell County, Texas, by 1870, setting the stage for later moves that would define Eliza's journey. Central to their conversation is the family's relocation to Indian Territory in the late 19th century, driven by legislative changes and opportunities for land. They examine whether Eliza and Jacob's move was part of the 1889 land grab or if they qualified for tribal membership based on family stories of Eliza's Cherokee ancestry.
Through research, Diana and Nicole find that Eliza did not have Native American bloodlines, with her husband Jacob being ¼ Choctaw. This discovery leads them to reconsider the family narrative, suggesting the lore of Eliza's Cherokee heritage may be rooted in her step-children's Choctaw background rather than factual history. They conclude by emphasizing the role of research in affirming or refuting family stories. The tale of Eliza Ann Isenhour exemplifies how family lore can morph over time and underscores the significance of a thorough and open-minded approach to uncovering historical truths.

In this episode, we discuss breaking up complex research projects into phases. This is a great way to make progress on a research question that might otherwise seem daunting. We'll talk about how to identify the mother of Elsie, a woman born in 1820, as an example of how to set up phases for research. We'll also discuss how to determine which phases are necessary and how to write research objectives. We wrap it up with a discussion of Diana's Clemsy Cline project phases.
The Clemsy Cline project sought to identify the father of Mary "Clemsey" Cline. Clemsy was born about 1817 in Alabama and died after 1880 in Wise County, Texas. She married William Henderson Weatherford in about 1839 in Arkansas.
Phase 1 of the project focused on finding a candidate for Clemsy's father. Diana analyzed census records from 1850, 1860, and 1880 and concluded that she was most likely born between 1817 and 1820 in Alabama. Her father would have been born before 1800 in Virginia. The researchers also found that Clemsy was associated with a number of people in Arkansas, including Jacob Cline, Mahala Cline, and John Cline. These individuals were all living in the same area at the time that Clemsy was born, and they may have been able to provide some clues about her father's identity.
Phase 2 of the project focused on exploring the land patents of Clemsy Cline's FANs. Diana identified three Cline individuals who patented land in Izard County, Arkansas, between 1838 and 1850: John C. Cline, Mahala Cline, and John Cline. Diana believes that these land patents may provide some clues about the father of Clemsy Cline.
Phase 3 of the Clemsy Cline project is currently ongoing andseeks to test the hypothesis that John C. Cline was the biological father of Clemsy Cline. Using DNA evidence and documentary research, Diana has found a cluster of Clines in a network graph. This cluster includes descendants of Mahala Cline Shockley and descendants of John C. Cline through his 1850 census family with probable second wife, Milky Cline.

Diana and Nicole discuss the intricacies of tracing ancestors back to the Colonial Era in the United States, emphasizing the scarcity of immigration records before the establishment of the U.S. Federal Government in 1789. They highlight strategies such as cluster research and the use of DNA testing to overcome the challenge of limited documentation, particularly for those who emigrated from England, Scotland, France, Germany, and other regions. The co-hosts explain the significance of creating a locality guide based on historical context and settlement patterns to identify an ancestor's original colony. Through examples like the detailed records of German immigrants to Colonial Pennsylvania, they illustrate the value of specific documentation that did exist, such as oaths of allegiance and captain’s lists. They also point to essential resources, including Filby's "Passenger and Immigration List Index" (PILI) and various online platforms for accessing immigration records, preparing listeners for the next episode that will explore records from 1820 to 1906.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the evolution of naturalization laws in the U.S., tracing how these laws have shaped the process of becoming an American citizen from the country's early days to the modern era. By examining specific acts from 1790 through to the 20th century, we shed light on the legal landscape that our ancestors navigated as they sought to establish new lives in America. This exploration not only aids us in understanding the context of our ancestors' experiences but also provides valuable insights into the legal context of naturalization records, which are crucial sources for genealogical research.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about naturalization records in the United States. We review the genealogical information naturalization records can hold, and discuss various records created in the process. We talk about Declarations of Intention (first papers), Petitions for Naturalization (second or final papers), and Certificates of Naturalization. We also go over the use of census records for clues about naturalization status, including columns for alien status, declaration of intent filed, and naturalized status, across various census years. An example is our ancestor, William Beddoes, and his naturalization in Utah.

In today's episode of Research Like a Pro, we delve into the life of William Henry Kelsey Jr. (1856-1918), exploring his various roles as a tradesman, entrepreneur, and homesteader. His ventures in the sawmill industry, wholesale fruit and berry business, and homesteading in Idaho are thoroughly examined. Personal accounts from his children enrich our understanding of his experiences and contributions. We also consider his impact on his family and community, highlighting his entrepreneurial spirit.
As genealogists, it's fascinating for us to dive into specific aspects of our ancestors' lives, such as their business pursuits. These explorations not only uncover the economic and social contexts of their times but also bring us closer to understanding their personal stories and contributions to their communities.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the new DNA tools at LivingDNA. Initially, we discuss our personal projects and thoughts on time management, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing life goals and projects. We then shift to the main topic: our experience with LivingDNA's new tools, specifically the chromosome browser and the Matchbox. We explain how these tools help in organizing DNA match lists and provide insights into ancestral connections. LivingDNA's unique feature of giving detailed biogeographical breakdowns, particularly for British Isles ancestry, is highlighted.
A case study is presented where Diana uses these tools to identify a mystery DNA match. By filtering out small segments and focusing on larger ones, she successfully imports data into a chromosome map on DNA Painter. This process aids in distinguishing between maternal and paternal matches. Diana illustrates how analyzing shared centimorgans and geographical regions, along with using tools like Lucidchart and ancestry trees, can confirm hypotheses about family connections. We conclude by emphasizing the benefits of using multiple DNA databases for comprehensive genealogical research, noting the unique information each provides.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about conflicts encountered while researching our ancestor Harriet Huggett Kelsey and updating her profile on FamilySearch. Diana found conflicting information about Harriet's birth year, with possible years of 1823, 1825, and 1826 from different sources. We discuss a conflict regarding the name and identity of Harriet's twin sister Hester/Esther, with records using both spellings and even an indexed baptism record combining the two sisters' names into "Esther Harriet Huggett."
To resolve the birth year conflict, Diana found Harriet's original 1823 baptism record showing she was baptized shortly after birth as well as an 1841 census record stating she was 18 years old, confirming the 1823 birth year over the later years Harriet herself had given.
For the name and identity conflict of Hester, we again found the original 1823 baptism record clearly naming the two twin daughters as Esther and Harriet Huggett. Diana shares a note on a family group sheet from a descendant about Hester's name variations. Shee updated the profiles and added reason statements explaining the research and resolution of the conflicts. Join us as we discuss using original records, adding source citations, adding notes with reasoning, and collaborating with other researchers through FamilySearch tools. We also discuss alert notes and the challenges and benefits of having a free, shared family tree at FamilySearch.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about our ancestor Harriett Huggett (Nicole's 3rd great-grandmother and Diana's 2nd great-grandmother). Diana researched records for Harriett's early life in England. She enjoyed finding a personal history written by Harriett's granddaughter which provided wonderful details about Harriett's decision to leave her wealthy situation. The history describes their difficult journey and Harriett's adjustment to poverty in the Utah desert after being used to fine things in England. We talk about how this must have been a huge transition for her. Harriett wrote a letter about her life in 1892 to her grandchildren. Diana found the letter on FamilySearch and says it shows Harriett had no regrets, despite the challenges. She lives a life of fortitude, courage and service. Diana says writing blog posts about ancestors helps her learn more details she wouldn't have found otherwise.

In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Nicole Dyer and Diana Elder speak with Sam Howes, an archivist at Bates College in Maine. They discuss his work managing the official records of the college, including administrative documents, student records, yearbooks, and special collections. Sam explains what types of materials college archives typically maintain, like trustee meeting minutes, presidential records, alumni newsletters, student government documents, and more. He notes that confidentiality restrictions can limit access to some more recent records. The hosts also ask Sam about how and why archival collections get donated to colleges. He explains that materials often relate to notable alumni or tie into existing collections at the school based on its history. As an example, Bates houses an extensive collection belonging to former Maine governor Edmund Muskie. Sam emphasizes that college archives can contain a treasure trove of unexpected information and encourages contacting the archive in advance when planning a research visit.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about our ancestor, Selina (Beddoes) Kelsey. Selina lived until age 97, and was regularly featured in Utah newspapers due to being one of the last pioneers to arrive in Utah by wagon (before the railroad). Selina was only 4 years old when she crossed from Nebraska to Salt Lake City by covered wagon. Diana organized the newspaper clippings into a timeline in Airtable to keep track of the clippings.

For blog post: Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about how to unmerge profiles on the FamilySearch Family Tree. When there are many people of the same name who lived in an area, it's common for the profiles to get accidentally merged.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about Diana's research on Mary Clemsy (Cline) Weatherford. Clemsy is a brick wall ancestor. We don't know who her parents were, and record are challenging to come by due to record loss in Izard County, Arkansas. However, Diana shares how she found substitute records at the state and federal level that helped locate a hypothesized father for Clemsy - John C. Cline. FAN club research also helped her find two possible siblings. Join us as we discuss this research in progress.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about our ancestor, Mariah (Brockhouse) Beddoes who left her parents in England with her husband and two young daughters to join with other Latter-day Saints in Utah Territory. Mariah was born in Willinghall, England, and her father was a locksmith. She married William Beddoes, a miner, and they eventually had a family of 13 children. The stories about Mariah's departure from England are heart-breaking. She left her parents behind to never see them again.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is a case study about John D. Isenhour and surnames that can be challenging to research. The surname Eisenhower was challenging to research because of the various spellings and eventual anglicization of the name by our branch of the family. We discuss John D. Isenhours migration from Pennsylvania to North Carolina to Missouri, using tax and land records to learn more, and understanding the community he migrated with.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about an ancestor who died too soon, Diana's great-grandmother, Mary Margaret (Peterson) Creer. We discuss Mary's Danish parents, their immigration, and settlement in Spanish Fork, Utah in the late 1800s. Mary married Charles Cannon Creer in Manti and had a wedding reception in a white brick house Charles built for his bride. Mary was the mother of eleven children, but had an accident that shortened her life. Join us as we talk about Mary's life and stories shared about her by a great aunt.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about Daniel Henrie and his membership in the Mormon Battalion. The 52 ancestors prompt that brought about this post was about membership in a broader community - what churches, clubs, fraternal organizations, service groups, or military units did your ancestors belong to? Exploring membership in those groups helps us understand our ancestors' lives better. Join us as we learn more about Daniel Henrie and the Mormon Battalion which was active during the Mexican War from 1846-1847.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about an outcast in our family tree. Diana shares how she responded to the 52 Ancestors prompt to write about an ancestor who was an outcast. She chose William "Dick" Shults, who fled town after a gunfight and settled in Arizona. He made it into the newspapers several times in the early 1900s due to run-ins with the law and other events. Join us as we discuss Diana's research using newspapers and census records to uncover the story of William "Shoot 'em up Dick" Shults.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is the second in a series of discussions with Michelle Mickelson about the Alford/Johnson research project. The project was commissioned to determine if James William Johnson was actually Patrick Alford. The data from a deep dive into friends, family, associates, and neighbors revealed that the two men were almost certainly the same - based on records of the siblings.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about Malissa Welch, Diana's 2nd-great-grandmother. We discuss her life and sources we have found for her, and how we incorrectly attached the parents of Meredith Welch and Susannah early in our genealogy research. Later we discovered a conflict with her name which led to discovering the correct parents for Malissa.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about using Airtable for a genealogy research log and how to configure and save different views of your tables. Tables are like pages within a spreadsheet. In your research log table, you may have many entries of various record types. You may want to filter to just see tax records, then group them by tax district, especially if you're studying many people with the same name. After configuring this special view of tax records, you can save the view and come back to it later. Now you have two views of your research log - the original view with all the records, and the tax record view. You can save up to 1,000 views of each table! Join us as we talk about saving views in our DNA match details table, research log, and even a new view type, the list view.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the Family Locket Genealogists project to write up our client's research about James William Johnson and his origins. In episode 256, we interviewed James Wesley Johnson about his ancestor James William Johnson and the discovery that James was actually Patrick Alford. James asked Family Locket to verify his research and write up the research professionally. Michelle Mickelson, one of our researchers, took on this task, and is sharing how she began the project. This is part 1 of a 3 part series.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about evaluating family trees and the sources in them to help us determine if a family tree is accurate. We review independent sources, primary information, and direct evidence. In the absence of direct evidence, we can often put together a body of indirect evidence to help us prove a parent-child link, but that requires a written conclusion. Often family trees are missing this element.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about AncestryDNA's Thrulines hypotheses. We respond to a listener question about how accurate Thrulines is. We discuss new AncestryDNA technology SideView and how they use that to split up matches by parent. We review strategies for analyzing Thrulines to see if it's accurate or not. We talk about matches sharing small amounts of DNA and how they are often found in inaccurate Thurlines hypotheses.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is an interview with Deborah Keyes, a member of our recent Research Like a Pro with DNA study group. Debbie shares her research project from the study group, which focused on proving a relationship between a Slagle man of European descent and a Carrington woman of African descent who lived in Virginia in the late 1800s. Genetic networks showed that there were many DNA matches between the descendants of both individuals. Join us as we talk with Debbie about the steps in the Research Like a Pro with DNA process and what she learned about her objective in the study group.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about double cousins. Do you have any? We'll talk about how double cousins and other relatives with whom you share multiple relationships can affect DNA match analysis and genetic network analysis. Although double 3rd cousins don't always share an inflated amount of DNA, you can definitely tell they are double cousins in your network analysis. Join us as we discuss these issues.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about using DNA evidence to help with your Pennsylvania German research. We talk with Heidi Mathis about her experience using DNA with her colonial German ancestry. She noticed that her recent German side has fewer DNA matches than her colonial German side. We discuss differences in match lists, using autosomal DNA for more distance research questions, and an example from the Hittell family in 18th century Pennsylvania.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is an answer to a listener's question about an immigrant ancestor who came from Norway to North Dakota in the 1880s. We invited Jenny Hansen, AG, who is an expert in Scandinavian research to come help us answer this question. We discuss name changes, sources to consult in the U.S., what to expect when looking at immigration records, and records to consult in Scandinavia.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is an interview with Suzanne Campbell Lowe. In 2005, Suzanne learned from a white cousin about her Campbell family's connection -- through slavery -- to a black man named James Meredith. Over the course of the next several years, Suzanne's white and black families have built their relationships and explored their descendancy from their common ancestor: a prominent white leader of the Confederacy named J.A.P. Campbell. Join us as we discuss Suzanne's journey getting to know her black cousins and learning about African American research.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is a discussion of the book American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America by Colin Woodard. Heidi Mathis, one of our researchers, joins us to discuss the general idea of American Nations. The book gives us a hypothesis to understand U.S. history as we research our ancestors. Also, the book excitingly has DNA evidence to back up the hypothesis it proposes for understanding U.S. history.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is how to use RootsFinder, a family tree building online tool, to analyze your DNA matches and create a network graph - this time, with MyHeritage DNA matches. MyHeritage is unique because it shows you which of the shared matches triangulate. Network graphs consist of DNA matches, the nodes, and shared match connections, the lines between the nodes. With MyHeritage matches, you can create two types of network graphs at RootsFinder - a shared matches network graph, or a triangulation network graph. Join us as we discuss both of these.

Network graphs consist of DNA matches, the nodes, and shared match connections, the lines between the nodes. In RootsFinder, you import your matches and then link them to the common ancestor in your tree. Then they are automatically colored. Viewing the matches in triangulation/cluster view allows you to see groups of matches that share DNA with each other. Join us as we discuss how to do this!

The MRCA of the cluster appears to be Elijah Dillard. In this assignment, Diana followed her research plan and recorded her searches in Airtable. Her research log helped her organize many deeds in Pike County, Georgia, as well as FAN club members. She also used GWorks and the FamilySearch Tree in descendancy view to find additional matches whose trees didn't go back as far as the Dillards.

The MRCA of the cluster appears to be Elijah Dillard. In this assignment, Diana made a research plan. First, she created a summary of known facts about Elijah Dillard. Her goal for this phase was to find out his parents or origins to see if Cynthia would also fit into that family. She planned several steps in documentary research and then DNA methods. She decided to focus on Macon and Pike counties in Alabama, where Elijah lived in his earlier years.

For the RLP with DNA study group, she is exploring the possibility that a cluster of DNA matches from her second cousin’s network graph are related through Cynthia Dillard’s parents. The MRCA of the cluster appears to be Elijah Dillard. In this assignment, Diana explored DNA tools to see if any would be useful in her project. She learned about DNA Gedcom's GWorks tool and practiced using it to find relevant surnames in the trees of Victor's DNA matches. Diana also used Genetic Affairs' Hybrid AutoSegment Cluster analysis combining segment data from MyHeritage, FTDNA, and GEDMatch.

For the RLP with DNA study group, she is exploring the possibility that a cluster of DNA matches from her second cousin's network graph are related through Cynthia Dillard's parents. The MRCA of the cluster appears to be Elijah Dillard. In this assignment, Diana studied Elijah Dillard's timeline and chose two places to learn more about and create a locality guide - Macon County and Pike County. She also studied the ethnicity results of Victor and his matches, comparing their AncestryDNA communities.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about books that Diana has been reading to help her with African American Research. She discusses general reference books as well as locality specific references.There are an abundance of materials available to guide our research these days, and some of those materials are only available in printed books. It's great to take advantage of the writings of fellow genealogists and historians to help us along the way.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about Diana's experiment to see if doing surname searches at each DNA testing website could help her find matches about a research question. She then used the results of her searches to decide if she had enough matches to work on this research objective. Mary “Clemsy” Cline, born in 1818 in Missouri, is one of our brick walls. Diana talks about using the search features at AncestryDNA, 23andMe, FTDNA, and MyHeritage to filter her match list and find DNA matches with the surname Cline in their family tree. Once she found matches descending from the research subject, Mary Cline, and her hypothesized father, John Cline, Diana determined that there were enough matches to work with that she could do this project. We talk about finding additional matches using the shared matches of those found through the surname search.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about Family Tree DNA's family matching and bucketing system, which is part of the Family Finder autosomal test. After linking a DNA match to your family tree at their website, the family matching algorithm uses phased matching to assign maternal and paternal icons/buckets to your matches. Adding close matches and up to third cousins helps you take advantage of this helpful tool. Listen in as we discuss how this can help you better use your matches at FTDNA.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about revisiting previous conclusions in your family tree. Have you been carefully adding new branches – or have you added extra ancestors based on hints and suggestions from online programs without much analysis? How about past research – is it up to current standards? If you are like us, some of the branches of your family tree might need pruning out and perhaps some new ancestors grafted in. How can we be more prudent in working with our tree? It all starts with sources and analysis. Join Diana and me as we discuss reviewing our family trees.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about researching African American ancestors in United States federal records using land and military records. We discuss laws that impacted free black people and freedmen in the reconstruction era. Many records were created because of the Homestead Act of 1862 and Southern Homestead Act of 1866. We go over a brief history of African American involvement in wars beginning with the Revolutionary War up until the Vietnam War, and conclude with a strategy for finding military records for ancestors.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about locality research. As we revisit the steps of the research like a pro process, we are discussing Diana's project about Nancy Briscoe. Nancy lived in several places, but this objective focused on her early years, during which time she lived in Arkansas and Missouri. Diana created two simple locality guides for two Missouri counties and used the Arkansas state guide she had already created. We discuss how to make your own locality guide to become familiar with the place you are researching and the records that are available there.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about using RootsWeb and FamilySearch Genealogies to view family trees that users have uploaded to the internet. These resources are helpful in your "literature survey" - the search you do at the beginning of a research project to determine what has already been uncovered about a research subject. Join us as we discuss our experience with using these free family tree platforms to search and share our family trees.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the Kinship Determination Project (KDP), the narrative family history work sample created for your Certification portfolio submitted to the Board for Certification of Genealogists. The KDP element shows your ability to prove parent-child links as well as tell the story of a family in their unique place and time. There are three formats of narrative family histories - narrative genealogy, narrative lineage, and narrative pedigree. We discuss these terms and the numbering systems that go with them. We also discuss proof statements, summaries, and arguments, and what these look like.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about what to do after you have finished all the RLP with DNA steps. Robin Wirthlin, genetic genealogist, joins our discussion. If you haven't reached a proven conclusion, you'll want to start on the next phase of our research. Choose a sub-objective to work on next - maybe you have a hypothesis to test and see if you can eliminate. We also discuss DNA blogs, podcasts, classes, institute courses, and books to help you continue learning about genetic genealogy.
