Genetic Genealogy

To help fellow researchers identify shared ancestors and confirm family connections, we have a dedicated DNA workspace within our private family history hub at ForeverDear | Branches.

Comparing genetic matches across various testing platforms allows us to identify shared DNA segments, verify ancestral lines, and confirm whether a match aligns with specific branches of the Kavanagh family.

Supported DNA Platforms

Whether you have tested directly with a major provider or uploaded your raw data to a third-party database, you can collaborate with us. We track and log matches across:

• AncestryDNA

• GEDmatch

• MyHeritage DNA

• FamilyTreeDNA (FTDNA)

• 23andMe

Privacy & Segment Sharing

Within our private family portal, segment data and kit details are shared strictly among group members. You retain full control over how your information is displayed (e.g. full name, initials, or an alias).

How to Share Your DNA Matches

You can now share match details, discuss potential segment matches and collaborate on brick-walls directly inside our private group space:
