• Well-informed, back-to-basics DNA Explainers, who will answer questions and explain to DNA novices the more sophisticated comments about DNA to all members and the simply stumped.

• For those DNA-interested-BUT-unsure of their genetic relatives and relationships: "The quickest way to find answers : take the auDNA test at one of the most used sites (23 and Me, ftdna.com, ancestry.com, My Heritage.com), and if you're further interested please transfer those dna results to the site giving the most frontal scientific results, ftdna.com. For the most thorough way: take the most expensive and encompassing DNA tests for both Y-DNA and mtDNA. this will give you more information, especially if you are "100% Jewish." If your link is through paternal or maternal lines, choose the gender-appropriate tests, not the auDNA test.
• STATE your STEPS: These are the steps used to find your now known (but once missing) DNA-Jewish ancestors and relatives. Shadowing someone's steps can be very useful to those who are beginning their searches. Find the "STATE your STEPS" headline and list yours.

( Note: DNAgedcom.com, developed for ftdna.com and used frequently by 23 and Me, has features that the usually used gedcom.com does not have. With ftdna.com, trees can be downloaded into gedmatch.com directly. Also applicable to any other websites?)
