CeCe Moore (born January 15, 1969) is an American genetic genealogist who has been described as the country's foremost such entrepreneur.[1] She has appeared on many TV shows and worked as a genetic genealogy researcher for others such as Finding Your Roots. She has reportedly helped law enforcement agencies in identifying suspects in over 300 cold cases using DNA and genetic genealogy. In May 2020, she began appearing in a prime time ABC television series called The Genetic Detective in which each episode recounts a cold case she helped solve.[2] In addition to her television work, she is known for pioneering the genetic genealogy methodologies used by adoptees and others of unknown origin for identifying biological family.[3][4][5][6]
Background
Moore was born in 1969[7] to Anthony Michael Moore (1935–2008) and Janis Proctor.[8] She studied theatre, film, and vocal performance at the University of Southern California and appeared in commercials and professional musical theatre shows, and, later, directed and cast advertising campaigns.[9][10][11][12]
Moore became interested in DNA genealogy in about 2003.[13] In 2009 while she was developing an advertisement for the company Family Tree DNA, she met genealogist Katherine Borges who was Director of ISOGG. Borges introduced her to rival consumer DNA company 23andMe and made Moore a leader of a forum for people who wanted to know more about DNA genealogy. Moore became fascinated by the subject, taught herself about it, passed over her business projects to her husband Lennart Martinson and worked full-time on DNA genealogy.[14] In 2012 she approached 23andMe to ask if she could put crime-scene DNA into their DNA databases. 23andMe refused, but later in 2018 she began to use the DNA databases of GEDmatch and Family Tree DNA.[1]
She has appeared on many TV shows such as Finding Your Roots, 20/20, Dateline NBC, 48 Hours, The Doctors, The Dr. Oz Show, CBS This Morning, The Today Show, Good Morning America, NBC Nightly News, and CBS 60 Minutes.[15] She has been the genetic genealogy expert for Finding Your Roots since 2012 [10] and heads the Parabon NanoLabs genetic genealogical unit.[16]
Human identification cases
Moore has been a key player in a number of human identification cases. In 2012 - 2014, she was the genetic genealogist who worked with the Branum family on the Thomas Ray Lippert University of Utah artificial insemination sperm swap case.[17][18][19][20] Paul Fronczak was a newborn who was kidnapped from his mother's arms by a woman posing as a nurse in a Chicago hospital in 1964 and believed to have been returned to his natural parents in 1966. In 2015, Moore's team of genetic genealogists uncovered the true identity of the man raised as Paul Fronczak.[21] Using the methods Moore developed for birth parent search in adoption, it was discovered that his real name is Jack Rosenthal and he has a missing twin named Jill.[22][23] The real Paul Fronczak was found living in Michigan in 2019.[24]
In 2015, Moore led a team of researchers that established the true identity of amnesiac Benjaman Kyle as William Burgess Powell. In 2004, Kyle had been found outside a Burger King in Georgia; doctors determined he suffered from dissociative amnesia. For 11 years neither Kyle nor law enforcement assisting in his case knew his true identity, which he was able to later reclaim.[25][26] Moore works extensively with adults who were abandoned as babies to identify their biological identities. The birth parents of California foundling Kayla Tovo were identified through Moore's work,[27][28] as were the birth parents of the Los Angeles area three half-sibling foundlings who were featured on 20/20 in May 2016,[29] and the birth parents of the Tulsa Fairgrounds foundling "May Belle" aka Amy Cox, as featured on The Dr. Oz Show in October 2016.[30]
As the genetic genealogist for the PBS series Finding Your Roots with Henry Louis Gates, Jr., in 2015 Moore made the discovery that LL Cool J's mother was adopted. Through analysis of his DNA, she was able to identify his biological grandparents and introduce him to his 90-year old biological maternal grandmother.[31][32][33]
Projects
Family research
In February 2015, Moore founded the popular Facebook group called DNA Detectives that guides adoptees and others of unknown parentage to DNA to identify birth family.[34] In 2024, this Facebook page had 208,000 followers and is the largest online genetic genealogy group.[1][7]
Criminal investigations
In 2018, Moore joined Parabon NanoLabs as head of their genetic genealogy unit and hired three female genetic genealogists to work with her.[35][36] Parabon investigates cold cases using genetic genealogy. In February 2019, she was optimistic that most cold cases could be solved using public DNA data in a few years.[37][38] However, in May 2019, GEDmatch, the DNA database that she had mostly used to solve cold cases, changed its privacy rules so that it became much more difficult to solve cold cases. Moore said "Whatever one thinks about this decision, it is inarguable that it is a setback for justice and victims and their families."[39] By January 2024, Moore's team reportedly had solved more than 300 cases.[1][40][38][41]

Severt was a maintenance worker in the hospital at the time of the murder but had died in a car accident in 2001.[177]
- James Byrd was arrested in December 2020 and charged with armed kidnapping and sexual battery of a 22-year-old woman in Tampa Bay, Florida in 1998. Parabon had helped with the case. Two other rape cases in 1999 matched Byrd's DNA.[178] Byrd was acquitted of all charges at trial.[179]

- David Lee Blair was arrested by Pasquotank police in January 2021 and charged with the murder of 74-year-old George Washington Price Jr. in Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 2016. Price had died from multiple stab wounds. Moore's team at Parabon had helped with this case.[180]
- In Fort Myers, Florida, in 1984, 31-year-old Claretha Gibbs died from gunshot wounds to the abdomen. From DNA found at the scene, Moore's team were able to identify James Glen Drinnon of Okeechobee, Florida as a likely suspect.

- In July 2021, Lionel Wells was arrested for sexually assaulting five teenage girls between 2007 and 2014 in Detroit.[183][184] In September 2022, after pleading guilty, Wells was sentenced to 25 to 50 years in prison.[185][186][187]
- In August 2021, Bruce A. Cymanski was arrested and charged with the kidnapping, sexual assault and murder of 17-year old Nancy Noga, a senior in high school in Sayreville, New Jersey in 1999. CeCe Moore and her team had been instrumental in helping local police identify Cymanski.[188]
- In August 2021, Moore helped Newport Beach, California police identify Kenneth Elwin Marks as the likely murderer of 42-year-old Judith Nesbitt in 1980. Nesbitt had been showing her family's boat to a likely buyer. After a violent struggle she was robbed and shot. DNA had been extracted from the roots of hair found at the scene, a procedure thought to have been impossible before this case. Marks had died in 1999 and police considered this case to be solved.[189]
- In November 2021, Shawna Browning and her girlfriend Lauren Harrison were arrested in Detroit, Michigan and charged with Aggravated murder for the death of Shawna's 9-year-old daughter Haley Mae Coblentz who was found dead in Oregon on December 10, 2020.[190][191][192][193][194] However the charges were dropped on March 11, 2022, pending further investigation.[195]
- In December 2021, David Edward Doran was identified as the Myers Park Rapist who was responsible for committing at least 15 sexual assaults of young girls in North Carolina between 1990 and 1999. Doran could not be charged as he died in 2008 from throat cancer. The case marked the 200th time that a lead from the Snapshot DNA analysis division at Parabon NanoLabs resulted in a positive identification since Parabon began offering forensic genetic genealogy services to law enforcement.[194][196][197]
2022
- In April, William Clark was arrested for the 1987 sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl.[198][199]
- In May, Jennifer Lynn Matter, of Belvidere Township, Michigan was arrested and charged with second-degree murder with intent, not premeditated, and second-degree murder without intent for the murders of her newborn daughter who was found dead in the Mississippi River in 1999 and her newborn son who was found dead in Lake Pepin in 2003.[200][201]
- In May, Alan Lefferts was arrested for the 1996 murder of James Branner in Tallahassee, Florida.[202][203]
- In July, the 1975 stabbing murder of Lindy Sue Biechler of Manor Township, Pennsylvania was linked to David Sinopoli using genealogical evidence that tracked back to Gasperina in Italy coupled with immigration records and the unusually thorough and complete records of a Lancaster County club that recorded Italian members' towns of origin. Police used a discarded coffee cup to link Sinopoli to crime-scene DNA leading to his arrest.[204]
