If she is indeed a 2nd cousin, you will need to look a generation further back, unless your uncle is only a 1/2 uncle.

I check my matches every day. Yesterday a new match popped up as a "second cousin" Her tree is online and we share *no* surnames even, back to the fourth generation. She matches not only me, but three of my own cousins, apparently closely (looking into how closely now) She is baffled of course by this. I suspect my uncle might be her father. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to GENEALOGY-DNA-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Well she matches me as a second cousin, but that could just be the drift you get across generations. I'm waiting on results from another kit which should be her half-sister if I'm right. -----Original Message----- From: Robert Paine <rpaine@vom.com> To: Wjhonson <wjhonson@aol.com>; genealogy-dna <genealogy-dna@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tue, Dec 29, 2015 1:33 pm Subject: Re: [DNA] My first NPE If she is indeed a 2nd cousin, you will need to look a generation further back, unless your uncle is only a 1/2 uncle.

Yes but the case would be a *half* first cousin I know who all my first cousins are, this woman is a surprise So the inference is, that an aunt or uncle had another child, and we don't know it yet -----Original Message----- From: Robert Paine <rpaine@vom.com> To: Wjhonson <wjhonson@aol.com>; genealogy-dna <genealogy-dna@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tue, Dec 29, 2015 1:33 pm Subject: Re: [DNA] My first NPE If she is indeed a 2nd cousin, you will need to look a generation further back, unless your uncle is only a 1/2 uncle.
