The problem is where no descendants were listed. Those may be the lines
that need work.

I've looked at all the descendants that I have for this line and the latest
I can go to a direct male descendant is in mid 1800's. I have direct 6th
generation Capt. Antonio Ignacio de Medeiros who died in Feb. 5th 1849 in
Faial da Terra but only had a daughter. All the other lines I checked
Thanks for your responseand yes, it would be wonderful if we could get
that answer.

You know how ideas are really good in theory but sometimes when we put them
to practice, well, we run into obstacles?
Joao Afonso Grotas Fundas...born mid to late 1400s, d. 1512. Work tracing
ALL his sons forward for the past 550 years to wherever his descendants
went: America, Canada, Brasil, Ber
Those of us that are descendants of João Afonso can all pitch in for a
Y-DNA test.
I remember someone posting information a year or so ago that a university
was going to publish a paper about João Afonso (de Pimentel) das Grotas
Fundas but nothing was brought forth.

Dear direct paternal line descendant of Joao Afonso das Grotas Fundas,
We need your Y DNA tested to confirm a mystery and be able to make a huge
breakthrough with one of the original settlers of the Azores.
Of course we would then need to find a direct paternal descendant of his
father, the Count
This is exactly what we need in order to have scientific proof. Otherwise,
we will never know for sure. We NEED to figure this out. It's an
intriguing story that needs to be told and properly researched.
Is there anyway that we could identify a direct male descendant of Joao
Afonso das GF? Then
I have him born in Spain.

I don't know who Paul is or why he is mentioned on this thread about Joao
Afonso.
When getting into DNA and not knowing where to start, order Family Finder
and then other tests can be ordered later.

Theresa- I have not made a connection yet but you thought Paul MIGHT be
related? I know he is also related to CATHY Bourgeois who imitistes this
thread. They are related on two lines.
I admit ignorance, but i do not know which DNA test he should take. So far
all his paternal line goes
Yes, we would need a strict line male descendant of Joao Afonso das Grotas
Fundas (the male test taker must have the genealogy of his father's
father's father's father back to Joao Afonso) AND we would need a man who
was the son of the son of the son of the son of the Count of Benavente to
compare
Are there any direct male descendants of João Afonso (de Pimentel) “das
Grotas Fundas on this forum?
Even if there is we wouldn't we need to find someone descended from the
Counts to take a DNA test also to compare their DNA to?

If Joao Afonso (de Pimentel) "das Grotas Fundas" is who genealogists say he is
(son of the 3rd Count) then he would have been born in Spain, not in Portugal.
It would be nice if DNA technology could be put to use here to determine if he
does descend from the Counts.
Best regards,
John Miranda Ra
There is a discrepancy as to where he was born. Was he born in Portugal or
Baesa, Galiza Spain?

This is fantastic thank you!
So many of my ancestors trace back to him.
