We use extracted DNA or biological evidence from your case, to create a DNA “profile” that can then be uploaded into our FamilyTreeDNA database for familial matching purposes.
Forensic Genealogy is the utilization of Genetic Genealogy, genetic analysis in combination with traditional genealogy research to solve a crime. Our team utilizes familial matching within the FamilyTreeDNA database to identify individuals who may be related to an unknown sample and sometimes the identity of the unknown individual associated with the sample.
Gene By Gene and FamilyTreeDNA can provide forensic genealogy services to law enforcement for violent crimes against individuals (homicide or sexual assault) or to identify the human remains of a deceased individual.
