My #1 match at FTDNA is 63cM/13644 SNPs.  #1 appears to triangulate with #2.  I match #2 on the same segment of chromosome 9 - 25cM/4750 SNPs. FTDNA guesses match #1 to be 2nd-4th cousin and #2 to be 3rd-5th.   My 4x great-grandmother has the same surname as: Match #2 - 3x great-grandmother Match #1 - 2x great-grandmother thru 5x great-grandfather All lived in the same/neighboring counties at the same time.  Best case/most closely related scenario - all 3 of us share common 5x great-grandparents making us all 6th cousins.  I am confident in match #1's 5x great-grandparents.  My 4x great-grandmother is the right age and correct name to possibly fit here as daughter of match 1's 5x greats but it's just a guess.  Match #2's fit is a total guess - there is a son of the 5x greats who would be of correct age to parent the 3x great-grandmother, but she could easily be a further match than this.    My question is can a 63cM matching segment actually not be closer related than 6th cousins??  Match #1 & I share a total of 80cM while match #2 & I total 43.8 - all the other segments under 3cM.  Thanks!
