It's the French that gets misread. There was some French influence on Sao Miguel and my mom has some French as well. Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São Miguel island: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada On Tue, Nov 26, 2019 at 6:45 PM

Plus you can’t be 33% of your dad is only 12% Iberian, lol. Your chart is crazy. Is the French possibly because of the Flemish? Jesse had previously been tagged as more French. All 4 of his own grandparents immigrated to Hawaii from either São Miguel or Madeira, yet he is about 15-20% other.

Debbie, Your husband's R-M269 is not helpful for genealogy. However, you know where he falls on the tree of mankind. Look at your husband's Y-DNA matches. He's got 4 decent ones (Genetic Distance of 1 or 2). Three out of the 4 people have trees and the one missing a tree is managed by the same

Ancestry uses trees for the "spot on" analysis. Imagine the poor person who has a poorly researched tree and everyone copies without verification? And they are on the wrong island(s)? People move around, so pinpointing a location is going to be close to impossible with DNA. My dad is 50% Azorean

Thanks Cheri, for the info. My husband’s Y-37 turned out to be the most common, R-M269. I haven’t figured out how it is helpful, yet. FTDNA got my husband’s locations correct, too. Azores, São Miguel and Madeira. It also listed Guyana as a diaspora possibility, but not São Paulo Brazil—

There's DNA tests and then there are components to the DNA tests. The DNA tests aren't too hard to differentiate: 23 and Me: Autosomal only. AncestryDNA: Autosomal only. Family Tree DNA (FTDNA): Y-DNA, mtDNA, and Autosomal DNA. Living DNA: Autosomal only. My Heritage: Autosomal only. All

The difference of DNA tests between FTDNA and Ancestry is impossible to understand.I traced a line very carefully. One brother used FTDNA, his sister used Ancestry. FTDNA results came out very closely to my research to the 1500’s Portuguese, Italian, Croatian and English. Ancestry says
