Hi Cheri,
Thanks for the Azores DNA breakdown. I still have difficulty understanding these things but that you had 3 that matched and they were cousins means the system works. Since the 67 marker is a bit more expensive I don't think too many people are in this category? I asked question this because I have a family member, predicted haplogroup is R1b1b2 of German-Volga descent and so far he has had 9 12-marker matches and 25 25-marker matches and within both groups most are English/Irish/Scottish, not German or Russian. Since his gfather was not named on birth record, I am beginning to assume he was a foreigner passing by although there were a few other nationalities living in the German-Volga area of Russia I am told. He was the only child of this union. We have traced his mother's father and they left Germany 1766 for Russia under the invitation of Catherine the Great and this relative's grandmother and father left Russia in early 1900's for the USA. There is one Cabral in the bunch and it does list 1 Portuguese. Interesting. "E" -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
