About the Presenter:
Roberta Estes has been a professional scientist and business owner in the information technology arena for 25+ years, (BS Computer Science, MBA, graduate work in Geographic Information Systems), as well as an obsessed genealogist since 1978.
Roberta speaks publicly on the topic of DNA and genealogy and has been interviewed by the New York Times for multiple publications, appearing on Voice of America, National Public Radio, ABC News, as well as in other national and international radio, television and news publications and conferences.
Roberta’s genealogy specialty is southern colonial records, focused primarily in Virginia, Tennessee and NC. Minority records, reflecting her mixed heritage are of particular interest, specifically Native Americans, slaves, and other indentured individuals. Her “colorful” family history has allowed Roberta to participate in every aspect of DNA testing for genealogy, revealing unexpected surprises.
Roberta manages over 20 surname projects and is the founder of the Lost Colony DNA research projects. Her regional Cumberland Gap Y-line and mitochondrial DNA projects have several thousand participants and are the largest projects of their type in the word. She also co-administers the American Indian project and serves in an advisory capacity for the Melungeon project and other groups.
