You’re invited to join me for a FREE Facebook LIVE presentation on May 24th, at 2 PM EST.
We’ll be talking about tips and tricks to turn “AutoClusters into Solutions at MyHeritage.”
AutoClusters are a great tool and few of us are using them to their fullest potential. I know I wasn’t.
MyHeritage will be hosting this seminar on their Facebook page, LIVE.
I’ve done a few of these LIVE sessions before and they are SO MUCH FUN for everyone!!! They’re super popular too. We’ve had between 14,000 and 20,000 people view each one.
Want to Hear a Secret?
I’ve made three discoveries while preparing for this presentation – in the first cluster alone. I can barely stop. Who needs sleep anyway?
No, I’m really not kidding. My great-grandmother had a missing brother. We all assumed he died because we, today, couldn’t find hide nor hair of him.
Well, guess what – he’s not missing anymore. His descendants didn’t know where he came from, and we didn’t know where he went. It’s almost impossible to connect someone backward in time if you don’t have any geographic link at all.
AutoClusters ARE genetic links, from either end.
No Registration Required
You don’t need to sign up in advance. Just set a reminder and show up at the proper date and time. There’s enough “seating” for everyone, and no wait either. Can’t join us on May 24th at 2 PM EST? Don’t worry. MyHeritage records the sessions and you can watch them later.
Upload DNA Files Now!
I’m giving you this early heads-up so that you have time to upload your DNA file to MyHeritage, and the DNA of your close relatives whose tests you manage (with permission of course), if you haven’t yet done so. If you upload now, you’ll have access to all of the tools before the session.
Here’s what you need to do.
- Download your DNA file from either Ancestry, 23andMe, or FamilyTreeDNA. Step-by-step instructions for downloading your DNA file from each vendor can be found here.
- Upload your DNA file to MyHeritage. Step-by-step instructions for uploading to MyHeritage are found here.
- Upload or create a tree at MyHeritage or connect your relative’s DNA to their profile card in your existing tree.
- If you already have a fully paid data and records subscription plan at MyHeritage, you will receive all of the advanced tools, for free – including AutoClusters. You can try a free subscription if you don’t already have one, here.
- If you don’t have a data and records subscription plan, you’ll need to pay the $29 unlock for the advanced DNA tools, including AutoClusters, which is less expensive and quicker than testing again.
If you have close relatives who have tested elsewhere, you might want to ask them to transfer to MyHeritage as well. If they aren’t personally interested but will download their file, you can upload it and manage their DNA from your MyHeritage account.
You’ll find tools and matches at MyHeritage not available in other databases. MyHeritage is very popular in Europe. I’ve found some of my closest Dutch and German matches at MyHeritage, including in clusters.
Which is, of course, another reason to watch “Turning AutoClusters into Solutions at MyHeritage!”
Hope to see you there!
