For those actively researching their Terceira ancestors and were trying to see from my long list of End of Line ancestors whether you and I share some in common, then check again because I am just now adding in all my Terceira ancestors that were left off.
This list will be evolving in several ways. First, I will make sure I didn't miss any I wanted to mention.
Secondly, as I find DNA testing candidates, I will make notations after the names of my list of ancestors.
The great news is that I already found a candidate who is a direct male line descendant of an ancestor for just about everyone who has ancestry from São Bento and Ribeirinha on Terceira. It seems Manuel Gonçalves Leonardo and his wife Joana Gonçalves have millions of descendants. So I will soon learn more about the DNA of Manuel. I believe the candidate intends to pay for his own testing.
So over the next couple of days, as I have time to list the rest of my ancestors, you might like to take a peek and see if any on the list are of particular interest to you and decide if it would be worth for you to participate as I have described.
