Thanks Rosemarie I did check them out. Unfortunately, I didn't find any of my people. Of course I don't have a lot on my Medeiros line yet because I've been concentrating on my Fernandes line in Sao Miguel. But when I finally focus on that line, I will definitely check back there again. Jacki

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] [AZORES-Genealogy Dna Question

To all, The chart that Jackie found seems to confirm what the doctor once told me about Americans, that the Rh Neg factor shows up in about 15 % of the population. I¹m curious as to the figures for Portugal as to whether it is restricted to the mainland or includes all the islands (Azores, Madeira

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Silva descendants

Hi, No my book does not suggest that all Silva's are related. My Silva:Silveira are from Pico. There are Silva, Silveira, Sylva on all the islands. Henrietta - Original Message - From: Vivian Christy To: azores@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, March 15, 2010 3:59 PM Subject: R

I wish to thank everyone for their input on my dna question. I shall most definitely be following them up. The only common factor in all my kids whom have the rh negative factor is of course myself, and so I was curious. This group sure is a wealth of knowledge and source. Thank you all again
