Group, As half-descended from Azoreans, it is important to keep in mind not only the mixed nature of the population of the Azores, but of larger Europe, as well. I came up as 92% French and Orcadian, as well, with 7% Jewish/Palestinian.
BUT, I also know that there was a da Rosa, in my Azorean family (potential pointer to Flemish heritage), as well as the fact half of my Azorean half is from Capelas, and Ajuda de Bratanha before that. I have to admit some of them look a little French. On my mother's side, a portion of her English ancestors were Normans, who many French people will tell you are not actually French and were Danish/Viking, although the intermarried and blended, as well. Just some things to keep in mind. Happy researching, Group, and I can't wait until they unleash the new population finder. -Trevor Costa -----Original Message----- From: Anthony Soares <asoaresph...@gmail.com> To: azores <azores@googlegroups.com> Sent: Sun, Dec 1, 2013 4:24 pm Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Population Finder Cheri, Thanks for the info.
