I got turned onto this group by Cheri herself, when I wrote an email to the FTDNA website she responded to me, we spkoe on the phone for over an hour and I learned a lot, soon after I was using this group, I had my DNA tested which I never thought of before. In the short time I've been a member of this group you have helped me find my family in Piedade, Lajes do Pico, Pico which made it grow by a bunch. Found out I am related to Doug da Rocha Homes and his father. This group and all its members are such a wealth of knowledge that thank you doesn't seem to be enough. May it continue to grow, may I continue to learn and may you continue to teach, my best, Mike
