Jacinta Furtada married Antonio de Pimentel on 2 March 1756, in Ponta Garca. Antonio de Pimentel was the son of my 420 Antonio de Pimentel X my 421 Maria Furtada.
Shirley in CA ----- Original Message ----- From: Mary MK To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, July 27, 2013 1:42 PM Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Family Finder DNA, IT REALLY WORKS!!! I looked back at my and Shirley's GEDCOMs on Family Finder and I see may be related to an aunt of Constancia de Jesus (who married Antonio de Mello). Shirley shows Constancia's grandparents as Joao Fagundes Rabello (1705-1780, Ponta Garça) and Thereza de Sousa Furtada (1707-1771, Vila Franca & Ponta Garça). I have that same couple as parents of my direct relative: Jacinta Furtada(1727-1797, Ponta Garça). So if this is right it would be another link with Shirley. I'm guessing there might be more links if I keep searching. I don't know if Ciprano is in my tree more than once, but wouldn't be surprised. So I think I'm related to Shirley through both my g-grandmother and my g-grandfather! This might help explain the fragmented DNA matches. This is interesting!

Show Matches....then I chose "In Common With" and picked Shirley. You and Shirley don't have any matches in common. So it's not Antonio de Mello b. 1766 in Vila Franca m. to Constancia de Jesus Pimentel b. in Ponta Garca (and m. PG). So yes, you are right about not having enough DNA. You share 60 cMs (centoMorgan - a genetic unit of measure like a centimeter or inch...but it's microscopic) with Shirley and have 20 segments, but they are pretty fractured all over the place. The biggest block is on chromosome 10 (use your Chromosome Browser) and you'll see 3 blocks there. Do you have Ciprano do Rego & Antonia Barboza more than once in your tree? I wonder if this is contributing to the fragmentation. Once we start making more and more paper trail connections, I think we will be able to help the geneticists with our intermarrying ancestors. Yes, Ponta Garca was there first. Then Ribeira Quente. So you will a lot of references back and forth between the 2 freguesias.
