African Ancestry Experience
Sunday, June 11, 2023 - 3 pm in the Trent House Visitor Center
|
Connecting with our own family heritage gives life to history. For many African Americans finding those connections is often challenging and may seem impossible.
DNA analysis is opening new avenues to learn about those connections for people of all backgrounds, and DNA data collected across the continent of Africa can reveal family links to tribal groups, kingdoms, and nations. |

On June 11th, come to the Trent House to hear what some families have learned
about their ancestral roots in Africa and the science behind those revelations.
Also hear from Beverly Mills and Elaine Buck about their research
on the African American families who have lived in Central New Jersey for many generations.
This is a free event,
co-sponsored by the Dr. Carter G. Woodson chapter of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History
and the Trent House Association.
