Commercial DNA testing can be an important tool to assist Holocaust survivors in their genealogical research, whether by helping to fill in the blanks on a family tree or by identifying unknown living relatives. Ancestry, the largest DNA database of all the commercial DNA companies with over 18 million profiles, has partnered with the Center for Jewish History to provide free DNA kits to Holocaust survivors or their children. We thank Ancestry for this generous donation, which has already helped to uncover lost connections and to raise awareness of the potential of DNA testing for this population.
