Virginia resident and University of Maryland College Park graduate Marie Rundquist, owner, DNA-Genealogy-History, LLC, applies her diverse experience -- as a DNA project manager, collaborative research community moderator, and information technology and DNA consulting experience, in researching her North American family history. Interweaving DNA test results, history, and genealogy, Rundquist develops comprehensive historical narratives that are uniquely products of the present but which give voice to unheard ancestors, and truths, of the past.
DNA Genealogy History, LLC helps clients, who contact us from anywhere in the United States and Canada, research family heritage using proprietary analysis methods that link Y chromosome, mitochondrial, and autosomal DNA to tell their unique family stories.
Products include published books and articles, formal presentations to client organizations at their locations, and the development of custom website content. DNA Genealogy History, LLC, is the creator and owner of the "Travel by Ancestry" business principle.
Marie Rundquist, is the author of several published articles and three published books, two of which are about genetic genealogy, European and Native American intermarriage and ancestry, and the history of Acadian families in Nova Scotia and Louisiana. Rundquist's third book, which is about Ancient peoples, the animals and us, offers a radically different approach to visualizing ancestry.
Marie Rundquist volunteers as a manager of several websites concerned with Acadians in Maryland, Native American Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA haplogroups, autosomal DNA testing, and Acadian and allied surnames.

Marie Rundquist was among 55 authors of Acadie Then and Now: A People's History (2014), edited by Warren Perrin, Phil Comeau and Mary Perrin.
