Thanks, Antonio.I have those books. I guess I passed over it because of no connection to Terceira. I'll check it out next time I pull them out. It must be at least 10 years since I looked through it.Doug da Rocha HolmesPico & Terceira Genealogist=Get read
I agree that the Portuguese have a substantial amount of Celtic ancestry
evidenced by the frequency of Y-Dna R1b and MtDna H. But there hasn't been
a significant amount of movement into Portugal from countries that are
traditionally considered Celtic in a very long time. Although after the
