Hi,
Finally, an identified match – of course, with questions. My FTDNA tree is updated, X-Match chart printed/colored, other visual aids created and now exploring others’ trees. The match is to Pat Nostrome (I think part of the project)? Per FTDNA, the numbers are: 55 shared CM; 28 longest block; XMatch. Per comparing our trees, I found a definite match to my 3xG grandparents, and think Pat and I are 3rd C, 1xR. HOWEVER, this connection is not in the XMatch spectrum. More to be revealed? The match is to 1793 Antonio DUTRA of Lajes, Pico and his wife, abt 1799 Rita da Conceico (died Lajes, Pico). My line is their son, 1820 Jose Francisco DUTRA, b Lajes + his wife, 1826 Bernarda Candida, b Piedade. (Bernarda’s family offers some XMatch families to pursue). Jose and Bernarda married in Conceicao, Terceira, 1844, where they settled/raised their family. Their son, 1850 Jose Machado DUTRA m 1855 Maria do Carmo Pinheiro. Her earlier family is fairly solid to Terceira. FamFinder and XMatch repeat checking: Verifying I should anticipate an ancestral range of b abt 200 years before me or matches? Same general range for XMatch candidates? Cheers, Marsha Stringer strin...@mstringer.net -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
