Bob L,
I think so. But I emailed Melinda Lopes' idea to them and I will follow up
with a call tomorrow.
I still have the question you asked me in a private email about the
Population Finder. Something tells me that they're going to wait for the
new Population Finder that they've been promising
Does that mean I will have to contact them personally through email to find
out about my mother's and my Population Finder percentages?

When FTDNA unveiled their new Family Finder matches page last week, each
match had a bar under their name. If you pointed at it, you could see if
they were 80% European and 20% North African, for example. Then on Friday,
it disappeared.
I called FTDNA to find out when it would be restored. Neve
Thanks so much for that I've been trying to connect family members. My

Indeed, they have.
They've also added Ribeirinha and Salão to Horta (Faial). That completes
all the Horta parishes.. Maybe someone can compare the list with the LDS
