WCGS DNA Special Interest Group--What do all those DNA matches tell us?  They tell us about our ancestors.  Clustering programs group our DNA matches by ancestor.  This enables to see where our unknown matches fit together with known matches.  This is an automated process.  You will learn what a chart may tell you about endogamy in your family.
