Hi Cheri, Rick and Pam,
I just had an idea that could greatly help us with Azores ancestry in regards this Family Finder test.
Next chance you get, talk to the owner of FTDNA and try to convince him to make a new option.
It would be great to compare anyone else who has tested with the Chromosome Browser. Just enter in their kit number for the comparison.
The reason is that I find it hard to believe there would be no matching segments between my results and those of Doreen and her two cousins who tested. I have already proven we are related on paper. Sure, the amount of DNA we share falls below the threshold of 7cm. Maybe it's 6.5cm since most common ancestors were born about 400 years ago. But there are a lot of common ancestors. They just don't happen to add up.
What do you think?
While you're at it, maybe they can increase the options for 7th and 8th cousins, and more.
