This means we're connected on at least 2 of our lines since we both have the Joao Leonardes connection in Sao Jorge......double cousins!

I'm descended from Pero's brother, her son Nuno Velho Cabral and Africa Anes.......so, you're my earliest cousin that I know of to date,(most of the others are less than 500 years ago). However, I've been reading quite a bit about Dom Afonso lll since learning he's my grandfather in eons past....I'm actually more intrigued by his mistress, Madragana from whom we descend....in one of the things I read it stated that they have an estimated 5000 descendants so I guess they'll be more cousins discovered at some point in time!

Yes I do descend from Violante Velho Cabral through her son Pero. How cool to find yet another cousin.

If so then we are also cousins way back there.
