MICHAEL TOBIAS OBE
5 HALF-SIBLINGS FROM 4 DIFFERENT MOTHERS:
A DNA SUCCESS STORY!
During the Covid-19 pandemic in the UK in July 2020, a woman requested help from genealogical expert Michael to identify her newly discovered (via DNA) Jewish birthfather. She could not have imagined the story about to unfold, that involved research in 7 countries. In 3 short weeks, Michael followed the DNA trail and built family trees for each of 8 significant DNA hits on 3 different websites. He was able to identify the woman’s ties to 5 half-siblings, all of whom share the same father but with 4 different mothers.
