About the Presentation
This presentation will describe a SAS program Rick created to process DNA matches from Ancestry.com and which assists the user in creating descendancy listings to help determine previously unknown biological parents. The program reads HTML data to extract match results, and provides a mechanism to cross-reference these results with relationships constructed from family trees, obituaries, and other historical records. This presentation will walk the viewer through the entire process. For BASUG, I will also discuss the issue of dealing with a SAS implementation vs. a Python implementation. Rick will describe reasons for using Python, and compare some of the differences between the SAS and Python implementations.
