Don V, If you tested with FTDNA, you need to be part of the Azores DNA Project (log into your kit, point at Projects, then Join A Project, then in the Search by Surname type "azores." Click that and follow the directions to the end). The Sao Jorge island people are really starting to cluster now.
If you tested with AncestryDNA or 23andMe, FTDNA should be able to accept transfers soon (a couple of more months).
