Don't miss the latest episode of the OGS Ohio Roots podcast. We speak with Akron Beacon reporter Tawney Beans and the subject of her recent article, Glenn Duncan. When a routine DNA test revealed unfamiliar relatives, Glenn Duncan began unraveling a family secret hidden since the 1950s. We discuss how forged records, quiet agreements between friends, and modern genetic genealogy revealed that Glenn’s childhood playmates were actually his half siblings and how, decades later, the truth reshaped his understanding of family. Listen at www.ogs.org/podcasts or wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! May you discover new ancestors in 2026.
