Frustrated trying to use your DNA test results to find your birth family? There is help available.

There are Yahoo Groups for adoptees using DNA to locate their birth families. They offer help, tools and suggestions as well as a supportive community.

There is also a new book out called "Finding Family: My Search for Roots and the Secrets in My DNA" by Richard Hill. It is a deeply personal account of his own search for his birth family. He discusses the techniques he used with both Y-DNA and later autosomal DNA testing.

And a facinating radio interview with Mr Hill:
