Download or read book The Onus of Ancestry written by Arpita Mogford and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘It was believed that Dwita was born out of the confluence of three rivers of ancestry: the Takshaka (the king of snakes mentioned in the Indian epic Mahabharata, from her maternal grandparents), the Surya and the Chandra (the sun and the moon dynasties, from her paternal grandparents). Dwita was told by her mother in no uncertain terms that she had to live by family traditions and expectations. That is how life started for Dwita.’ The Onus of Ancestry: Destiny’s Mandate is about Dwita’s journey through life – her birth, special circumstances of her emergence, ancestry and heritage, and the people around her – those who loved her and those who did not, or could not, as destiny was not always on her side. She was pursued by her personal dreams, ancestral shadows, quiet aspirations and moral values, all of which denied her the irresponsibilities of youthful abandonment and fearless laughter. The book is also about the demands of ancestral norms and values, ending in privilege of heritage, destiny and karma. It is a challenging and mesmerising novel, leading to impregnable depths of romance and adventure – a victory for human spirit. The Onus of Ancestry: Destiny’s Mandate is a gripping novel, a fiction with historical links, that will be enjoyed by fans of both romance and adventure.

Download or read book Your DNA Guide the Book written by Diahan Southard and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-26 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You don't have to learn everything about genetic genealogy before asking specific questions of your DNA! That's the premise of Diahan Southard's brand new book, Your DNA Guide - the Book, now available for pre-order at a special sale price. Your DNA Guide - the Book is like no other genetic genealogy book on the market. Instead of learning more-than-you-need-to-know in textbook style, you'll choose a specific DNA question to start exploring right away. You'll follow concrete step-by-step plans, learning important DNA concepts--in plain English--as you go. Do you want to learn who your 2X great grandmother is? Turn to page 23. Do you want to know how you are related to one of your DNA matches? Page 37. As you proceed, you check your progress and get new guidance based on your specific results at each stage. (Including troubleshooting, like when your matches just aren't responding or your great-grandparents turn out to be first cousins.) This powerful, hands-on approach is based on Diahan's 20 years of experience in the genetic genealogy industry and especially in the past five years, as she helps clients one-on-one make DNA discoveries. It became clear to her that while each client's situation may be unique, there are patterns in how you can find solutions that you can apply yourself. Your DNA Guide - the Book is for anyone who has taken a DNA test or may want to. It helps genealogists reconstruct family trees. It helps adoptees identify biological relatives. It can help you identify a specific DNA match. In short, it helps anyone explore what their DNA--and their DNA matches--can tell them about their origins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life at La Bonne Vie Plantation is finally peaceful. Desirée and her rock star husband are on a world tour with his band, Nicolas has settled down on a farm in Kenya, and though his heart still aches for Desirée, he finds solace in raising his four year old daughter Jolie. Life is good ... isn’t it? Desirée, apathetic and longing for home and family, leaves the tour and flies home only a few months before it ends, causing questions she isn’t prepared to answer because she’s looking for answers herself. Her childhood sweetheart, Rory Duval, doesn’t make things any easier. Her old feelings for him flare up anew, and finally true happiness is within Desirée reach. When Nicky discovers Desirée is divorcing Antoine, he and Jolie go back home for the holidays, planning to get Desirée back and take her to Kenya, fulfilling the dream they once had. He arrives and is blindsided by Desirée and Rory’s engagement. Antoine wants his wife back, and he, Nicky and Rory collide in a determination to have the woman they all love. Meanwhile, Uncle Virgil is busy researching the dark mysteries of the family’s past. With Desirée’s help, answers are discovered in bits and pieces, finally coming together in a startling revelation. At last, things come around right and there is truly peace for the Duval/Leveque family.

Download or read book How to Interpret Family History and Ancestry DNA Test Results for Beginners written by Anne Hart M. a. and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-04-22 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many DNA testing companies will show you how to interpret DNA test results for family history or direct you to instructional materials after you have had your DNA tested? Choose a company based on previous customer satisfaction, and whether the company gives you choices of how many markers you want, various ethnic and geographic databases, and surname projects based on DNA-driven genealogy. Before you select a company to test your DNA, find out how many genetic markers will be tested. For the maternal line, 400 base pairs of sequences are the minimum. For the paternal line (men only) 37 markers are great, but 25 markers also should be useful. Some companies offer a 12-marker test for surname genealogy groups at a special price. Find out how long the turnaround time is for waiting to receive your results. What is the reputation of the company? Do they have a contract with a university lab or a private lab? Who does the testing and who is the chief geneticist at their laboratory? What research articles, if any, has that scientist written or what research studies on DNA have been performed by the person in charge of the DNA testing at the laboratory? Who owns the DNA business that contracts with the lab? How involved in genealogy-related DNA projects and databases or services is the owner?

Download or read book The Meanings of Genealogy for Science and Religion written by James S. Tomes and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-08-14 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a refreshingly unique approach to genealogy and its relationships with Science and Religion. It is the author's answer to the questions posed artistically by the painter Paul Gauguin's masterpiece; ?Where Do We Come From? What Are We Made Of? Where Are We Going?, as reproduced on the book cover. Most religions and cultures make important reference to their genealogies. Science, also, since the advent of Darwin's Theory of Evolution and its subsequent development and culmination in DNA and brain science research, has its own genealogy, telling the story of the pre-history and history of mankind, our migrations and the evolution of our behavior and cultures. The author, trained as both a biologist and lawyer, writing as an independent scholar, examines these questions through the various lenses of genealogy, biology, evidence, religion and philosophy. He considers, first: some basic but little known facts of genealogy; then our common mortality and heritage and brother/sisterhood with all mankind; then the variety of world-views; then the different evidentiary bases for science and religion; then a condensed, but comprehensive view of comparative religion and humanism; then the history of Biblical interpretation and Biblical genealogies; and, finally, the history of mankind as seen by science, including the remarkable recent discoveries of prehistoric man, and brain science. The poetry/prose metaphor is illustrated by insightful examples of both poetry and prose, and brief introductions to some remarkable religious and scientific personalities. The dark side of religion is explored, with contemporary critiques by renowned scholars, and some exemplary poets are referred to with examples of their poetry. This book avoids the combative rhetoric of both religious and scientific extremists, and points the way toward and enriching language and life of religious humanism. This ?new dualism? of poetry and prose reflects the biological facts of our simultaneously emotional and rational selves. Thus, religious humanism provides a natural bridge between religion and science, accessible to everyone. The poetry/prose metaphor can provide a thoughtful rationale for people to keep their religious beliefs and traditions, make peace between religions and also understand and appreciate the modern scientific world without conflict. Thus, genealogy has taken us on a long journey through the history of science and religion, illustrating the mysteries, complexities, and beauties of humanity's existence. The book is well researched and written clearly in an engaging style, with an extensive bibliography. It will be well worth reading by all people who have an interest in genealogy and its relationships with science and religion.

Download or read book Genealogy 101 written by Barbara Renick and published by Thomas Nelson Inc. This book was released on 2003-04-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A recent Maritz Poll reported that 60% of Americans are interested in their family history. And with good reason. Through genealogy, you can go back into history to meet people who have had more influence on your life than any others -- your ancestors. And the better you get to know your ancestors, the better you will get to know yourself: the who's and what's and why's of you. Barbara Renick, a nationally-known lecturer on genealogy, tells the uninitiated researcher the steps needed to find out who their ancestors really were, and brings together for even the more experienced genealogical researchers the important principles and practices. She covers such topics as the importance of staying organized and how to go about it; where and how to look for information in libraries, historical societies, and on the internet; recognizing that just because something is in print doesn't mean it's right; and how to prepare to visit the home where your ancestors lived. Genealogy 101 is the first book to read when you want to discover who your ancestors were, where they lived, and what they did.

Download or read book Jamaica Kincaid s Writings of History written by Antonia Purk and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jamaica Kincaid’s works consistently explore how colonial history affects contemporary everyday lives. Throughout her novels, short fiction, and non-fictional essays, Kincaid’s texts engage with history through its medial representations, which are starkly determined by colonial perspectives. This study examines the entanglements of temporalities in current perceptions of the past and how literary text intervenes in historical consciousness. With a focus on the media text, image, and the human body, the chapters of this book demonstrate how Kincaid’s "poetics of impermanence" counter colonial representations of history with strategies of ambiguity, repetition, and redirection. Kincaid’s texts repeat and revise aspects of colonial history – a process that decenters the totality of historical colonial ideology and replaces it with self-determined versions of the past through a multiplication of perspectives and voices.
