Congratulations, Tom. Good work. While the evidence may be (at least partly) circumstantial, it seems reasonable. Sometimes, circumstantial is as good as it gets. Just another comment or so: 1. One won't necessarily match all one's fourth cousins. Autosomal DNA inheritance is messy. The DNA gets chopped into smaller segments and some of those get over-written. 2. For this and other reasons, it's a good idea to test not only yourself but also both parents. If not a parent, then a cousin on that side of your family. This also helps to determine on which side (maternal or patrna) the match is comong from. -rt_/)
