What I was implying was that many people have taken all three types of tests (Y-DNA, MtDNA and Family Finder) so the total number of tests taken is much greater than the 930. Rick Richard Francis Pimentel Epping, NH From: azores@googlegroups.com [mailto:azores@googlegroups.com]

Hi George, A Y-DNA gets the top of your pedigree chart ONLY. Your strict paternal line. Your father's father's father's line only. 37 or 67 markers gets you into a genealogy time frame. I don't know what surname that line winds up with. An mtDNA test gets the bottom of your pedigree chart ONLY.

That is very interesting Ricardo I had noticed some time ago that Sao Miguel and Pico shared more DNA than I had expected. Do you happen to know which freguesias those Azorean samples trace their most distant known paternal ancestors to? Do you have any indication of which area of the Minho?

Hi Chris M, I have never heard of the company that you mention. If you do an Internet search on Family Tree DNA, it will come up. Or you can just go to your address bar and type: www.familytreedna.com or if that's too long, www.ftdna.com will redirect you to the www.familytreedna.com site.

Sorry Rick, I misread what you wrote. We have 932 total members (about 928 are unique members - a couple of people goofed when ordering a test). Y-DNA tests: 418 mtDNA tests: 366 Family Finder: 558 This adds up to over 1300 tests, so yes, members have ordered more than one type of DNA test.
