Helen, Just curious, where was your exposto Vieira from? Nancy Jean To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Still Looking for.Joseph Silva, Born 1830, I believe Flores. Went to boston, then came to Australia in 1855. From: his...@aol.com Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2014 14:45:19 -0400
Cherri is right. My grandfather was an esposto. I had my brother YDNA 37in 2007 then to 67 in 2008. He had 22 matches in YDNA67, one as close as a distance of 2. NO GEDCOMS. I wrote to the closest with the name of Roque. She was from Porto Rico if I remember correctly. She told me none of her ancestors had ever been to the Azores and she wouldn't share her tree. (Strike out ) Only 1 other had a Portuguese name. The rest are English or Irish. I couldn't find a connection with the 3 who posted their GEDCOM's . I have had my brother tested for everthing including 111 markers, in the hope someday we will have a definite match. and so I'll keep waiting. I would really like to know what my real name should be. Someone said the priest named the child. My Grandfather's name was Manoel Rodrigues Vieira. Did the Priest know something??

Went to boston, then came to Australia in 1855. Yes, there are enough people in this (Google) group, but not in the DNA Project. We have 357 Family Finder tests, we have 239 Y-DNA 37 marker results and and only 22 more have gone out to the Y67 level (if I'm reading this chart right). There are 655 total people in the DNA project. There are 1221 members of this Google Group, although some emails are duplicates (home and work, for instance). Family Finder - most definitely. Y67 would be good, but be sure to get the son of the son of the son of the son of the pai incognito and be prepared to wait.
