How accurate are your reports?

For our Y-chromosome reports (male line), we use the same forensic databases that expert witnesses rely on for court testimony in paternity cases and criminal offenses. For investigation of female lineages (mitochondrial DNA), we use the standard revised Cambridge Reference Sequence (rCRS) and Mitochondrial DNA Concordance. Our staff members are degreed professionals in history, philology and the social sciences. They can do what no geneticist can -- translate the number sets into a meaningful storyline based on an extensive knowledge of world history, population studies, and genealogy sources. Our focus on information sets our ancestry reports and surname studies apart from the "data-only" approach of our competitors in genetics and genealogy.
