Applying Genetics to the Biological History of Indigenous Tribes and Other Ethnic Populations

DNA Consultants began as a family business founded by Donald and Teresa Yates in 2003. Our methods, expertise and databases differ from other companies' and are not available anywhere else. In a field highly driven by technology, we still pride ourselves on a personal touch. We were first with Cherokee, Native American and Jewish forensic testing. In 2019, we introduced the Basic American Indian DNA Test, the most sensitive test for Native American ancestry.

An Overview of DNA Testing for Genealogy.

Deoxyribonucleic acid is the biological material that contains the blueprint and instructions for all function and development of living organisms. By examining and analyzing it, we can compare your genes to those of millions of people all over the planet. This analysis can be used for many purposes.

Our staff.

Our staff members are degreed professionals in history, philology and the social sciences, and they can translate your number sets into a meaningful historical story, based on extensive knowledge of world history, population studies and genealogy sources. Your genetic analysis will be customized for your personal research goals.

Megapopulations: The bottom line.

These are the Top Ten broadest possible categories for your relative mix of ethnicities. “1 in a trillion” is the random probable match or chance of occurence for your unique Gene profile or fingerprint. The lower the number, the greater the match and more likely it is you have ancestry in that population.
