He'll accuse you of having some sort of wannabe St. Patrick's Day parade or sumpoohp.

I don't know why you have that in your signature. You sent me a rude reputation point even though I've never noticed you or had any interaction with you and I sent one back to you saying "What's your problem?" And now you have it in your signature. How very odd.

Anyway about the thread. These people are from the Azores and I was wondering if anyone knows where they cluster genetically? Do they cluster with the rest of Portugal or being islanders are they a bit separate?

"The islands were populated mainly by Portuguese descendants immigrants from Algarve, Alentejo, and Minho; however, Sephardic Jews, Moorish prisoners, African slaves from Guinea, Cape Verde and São Tomé, Flemish, French and Spaniards also contributed to the initial settlement. Thus the Azorean population received a significant contribution from people with genetic backgrounds other than Portuguese."

My cousin's boyfriend is from Madeira and is rather dark. I wondered if he had any African admix.
