Feedback about Your DNA Helper, Cate Pearce
I’m so excited to be meeting my brother for the first time – without Cate’s help we would never have found each other.
My grandad was a complete mystery to the family but now we’ve found him, thanks to Cate’s dogged determination to never give up until she’d tracked him down!
Although it has been such a shock for my sister and I to know we have different fathers, Cate not only helped to identify who my father was but also was very kind and supportive in helping me to come to terms this new information.
I didn’t know where to begin but Cate’s skills in analysing the DNA and in tracking down all the family information were quite astonishing to me! And we found my father – I never thought it possible!
I really appreciated Cate’s professionalism and tactfulness in dealing with some pretty sensitive and delicate information in my case. I feel that I have closure now and my search can be laid to rest.
I was getting quite overwhelmed by the amount of DNA info online but Cate tailored some classes for me that helped me just work on my own family research and set me on the right path. Very clear and well organised and easy to understand.
