My sister and I both had our DNA tested by the same company.  Our Azorean 
heritage is through our father (deceased) who was 100% Azorean descent, we 
thought.  Our mother's family was European, primarily English and German. 
 I haven't been able to trace our family's Azorean records beyond 
California,1860's, at this point. Here's the puzzle:  Our results show 
traces of Polynesian DNA (my sister) and traces of Melanesian DNA (me).  We 
never were told that we had a Hawaiian connection, but now I don't know. 
 How common was 19th century intermarriage among Hawaiians?  We have no 
cousins, brothers or other close relatives to see their results. I'd like 
to figure out my next step in solving this mystery, if possible. 
 Suggestions appreciated.
