Armchair Genealogy

 

By Melinda Cohenour

FUTURE RESEARCH PLANNED

Our household has been affected by the flu. School districts closed or, where staff has not been decimated by flu, will offer remote schooling.

Updates on the Gilgo Beach Serial Murderer

Court date held January 19. Subjects under discussion and consideration were a Defense motion to sever the multiple murder cases brought against Rex Andrew Heuermann; and an expected challenge to the new DNA tests utilized to connect the victims' remains to Heuermann. This is referred to as a Frye challenge. Every new type DNA or other scientific forensic test is subject to this challenge.


New DNA testing submitted for our step grandson.
Test has just been received per notice from Ancestry. Expected six week wait to begin receiving results.

This should be interesting. Shaun's mother was married to my son John when Shaun was just a toddler. I have been in contact with Shaun's bio dad's sister. She informed me several of her siblings have tested as well.


More next month as your author recovers from the flu and results are received.


See you here next month. (Cough cough cough, sniffle, sniffle. )
