The World of Genealogy with David Ryan

On today's episode I chatted with Genealogist David Ryan who opened up my eyes to a profession I knew nothing about. What exactly does a genealogist do, who employs them, why and when? David explained to me the process that he normally follows, and the interesting people that he ends up doing this work for and the unusual stories that he uncovers, including the poor man who was killed on Patrick Street by a bull who had escaped! As well as providing practical tips about investigating your own family tree, he also spoke about the many online ancestry services that use DNA tests as part of their process and if these are to be trusted.
