DNA at NIFHS

The North of Ireland Family History Society promotes and encourages the public and personal study
of world-wide family history, genealogy, heraldry and local history with particular reference to the North of Ireland.

Recognising the importance of DNA testing in developing family history, the Society has established various initiatives to help people use their DNA results to connect with others from around the world whose roots are in the North of Ireland.

Regular training courses, ongoing support, collaboration and research are key ways in which the Society promotes DNA testing as a way to help its members and the wider community to find genealogical connections that might not be possible through traditional methods of research.

We have created this YouTube channel to provide information about DNA testing and how it can help you to analyse and manage your results to find connections and prove existing lines in your family tree.
