Description
Genealogy is one of America's favorite hobbies. And with the advent of home DNA test kits, it's now easier than ever to find one's ancestors. However, the DNA test craze has also had some unintended consequences. A surprising number of people have discovered that the heritage their parents had told them about is not what their genetics have conveyed. Even worse, some people are surprised to find out that one or both of their parents are NOT their biological parents.
Join local residents Steve and Becky Osborne on Nov. 9, at 3:00 p.m., as they explore this topic and how their search for Steve's Native American heritage changed his past, his future, and his definition of family. A copy of their book, DNA Did Not Anticipate, is available at the Mason Public Library.
