In one of the cases that I was worked on, where we were working on finding a missing birth father, i quickly learnt through ethnicity reports that my client was going to have links to an indigenous past.
This photo was found along the way and I would love to know the stories behind this picture.
Ancestry has updated their ethnicity reports to now include links to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander regions. When this update occured my clients ethnicity reflected this group. It was a moment to be celebrated.
During this journey we reached out to an Indigenous organisation to assist with information on her family and her DNA links, this wasn’t helpful – I hope in time these organisations will have the skills to understand DNA and use DNA to confirm links back to the past.
I look forward to sharing my knowledge and the power of DNA to confirm identity and links back to culture.
