Jim commented about Mike’s ahnentafel filing system discussed in episode 366. Robin wrote to describe another personal filing system. Tom asked for learning links about GEDmatch. Ginny asked whether there is a DNA testing company that only matches to your paternal side. Corrine found a DNA cousin match on both sides of her family that helped with multiple brick walls. Kim was talking at work about a funeral she had just attended, when a coworker commented that the name was familiar. It turned out that their grandmothers were cousins.
