How a man always thought he was one nationality and through thorough research found out he was mostly another nationality; or the woman who had been adopted and knew nothing of her ancestry, but found out through DNA testing what part of South America she was from. It is amazing and can be a bit overwhelming all of the information out there to help you find your roots. To help us wade through all of this, we have invited our favorite travelling librarian, Heidi Rodriguez. If you haven’t heard our podcast before, Heidi is a local adult services librarian for Wake County, North Carolina.

Pam has worked in the library for 28 years and specializes in genealogical research.
