Hi Linda!
Dna is wonderful, it does not tell you who your relatives are but it does tell you if there is a relationship there. There is still a need for a paper trail but both dna and a paper trail makes a much more solid genealogy.
For example, my brother is a participant in the Donnachaidh dna project and he and another person were exact matches at 37 markers but descended from two brothers so we were able to establish that was the birth family for these two brothers.
Paper trails can go astray but dna does not change.
