 Why Y-DNA Testing Matters

Bennett’s opening talk highlights Y-DNA’s role in tracing male lineage back through time.
If you're preparing for this event, we strongly recommend testing your family's Y-DNA — especially if you want to preserve paternal lineage data that may otherwise be lost.

For example:

"I'm female and don’t carry Y-DNA. My father was an only child, and much of his paternal family died in the Holocaust. If my nephew never has a son, this Y-DNA line disappears. Testing now preserves our legacy."

 What to test:
Bennett recommends:

• Paternal Ancestry Kit – $119

• Paternal Ancestry in Greater Detail – $449
