Cheri,
That works only on the ones I am also related to. If you are a match to them, the matches would not show when I run that, since we don't show a match on the Family Finder test. But if Rosemarie were a match to them and since I also match Rosemarie, then yes, that would show.
Come to think of it, I believe I ran that and there were zero matches aside from my father and this person.

CheriDoug -Run the In Common With feature on the Aussie guy and you'll see if he has any other Portuguese matches. If he's not familiar with Portuguese names, he's likely to come back and tell you he doesn't have any.

Hello Maria Natalia,I have something similar in my Family Finder matches.One person seems to have nothing but Australian ancestors, but there is one unknown father in their line. So I suggested to them the possibility that somewhere in my ancestry there was a son or grandson who was a whaler who traveled the world, stopping for a time Down Under.I'll have to look for this person and see if anyone else on this list has a match. I think I asked them if anyone else seems to have mostly Portuguese ancestry and I don't remember the response. If we can find another who matches them, we might be able to at least narrow down the likely island.Your story is really fascinating. Is there any way you can find a direct male line descendant of your pai incognito who is living and can do the Y test? That would be the ultimate proof, I think.
