Forensic genealogy is a field that commonly ‌uses non-DNA genealogical methods, such as searching historical records, both official and unofficial, to trace an individual's ancestral history. However, forensic genealogists can also use DNA test evidence to confirm conclusions. These tests provide valuable information on an individual's ancestry, aiding genealogists to trace their lineage and identify potential relatives.

These non-DNA genealogical research methods are typically extensive and are used to create a comprehensive family tree of these individuals. This research analyzes historical records such as marriage, birth, death certificates, military records, immigration documents, and census data. By merging this information, forensic genealogists can link individuals, their ancestors, and possible living relatives.

Forensic genealogists often collaborate with law enforcement agencies, probate courts, attorneys, and geneticists to share information and resources. This collaboration enables forensic genealogists to access knowledge and expertise, which increases the likelihood of successfully tracing an individual's family lineage.
