Forensic genealogy is an exciting field gaining respect worldwide. But what exactly is forensic genealogy? How is it applied? Is there a difference between a genealogist and a forensic genealogist? Who needs a forensic genealogist and why? This presentation addresses these questions and provides some interesting real-world examples.
