Did you enjoy Gil Bardige’s previous talk, Part 1? We hope that you tried his methodologies and techniques. Well, it is now time for the Next Steps. This intermediate to advanced level presentation is primarily for people with Jewish ancestry who have completed Gil’s Part 1 and have run into new brick walls or just want to be able to expand their search parameters productively. Gil provides you with actionable processes that you can really use in your genealogy research, including new criteria for each testing company, Pileup Regions, Triangulation, and "Average Segment Theory" for those of you who have tested at Ancestry.
Gil Bardige was born & raised in Chicago and currently lives in the Columbus Ohio area. Gil retired in 2019 after a long career in air conditioning and refrigeration, most recently as a National Business Development Leader for Trane.
At the “instruction” of his mother, Gil began his genealogy adventure in 1979 with 54 people in his tree. Today his family tree, including Mishpocha, is over 2300 people tracing 4 branches back to his 5th great grandfathers born about 1740. His family arrived in Chicago in the early 20th century in the early 1900s. For over 15 years Gil has expanded his knowledge base to Genetic Genealogy, testing at each of the four major DNA companies, and currently manages three y-DNA projects at Family Tree DNA as a Volunteer Administrator. He loves to help people manage their expectations and begin to remove confusion from the DNA results whether it’s, Y-DNA, mtDNA, or Autosomal DNA. He had spoken at dozens of local events and international conferences, including at IAJGS in Orlando, Cleveland, Virtual San Diego, Virtual Philadelphia x2, and most recently London.
Gil is the Chair of the Genealogy Committee of the Columbus Jewish Historical Society (JGS). He co-hosts live Genetic Genealogy Q&A sessions at JGS Illinois and JGS Toronto. Gil developed and hosts the monthly CJHS Kvel & Kvetch genealogy Q&A in Columbus. Gil manages the Mentoring Program for IAJGS and cohosts the Apple Users and Jewish Genealogy Facebook page and monthly virtual BOF (Birds of a Feather)
meeting.
