My dad did a test through 23&Me and matched with a woman who shares 16.2% DNA, with 1207 cM & 26 shared segments. The longest of the shared segments is 226.20 cM which I know is extremely high. The woman he matched with does not know who her biological father is. My dad is 98.6% Ashkenazi Jewish and she is 47.6% Ashkenazi Jewish. <br /><br />Trying to figure out if her father is/was a full or half brother to my dad whom we just don't know of for whatever reason or if it's possible that my dad's dad had a child with one of his sisters and that male child was given up for adoption or something?<br /><br />One of my dad's first cousins has done her DNA through Ancestry and I'm wondering if I should just ask her to share the raw DNA file with me so I can compare it as well. <br /><br />The woman he matched with at 16.2% unfortunately cannot ask her mom about any of the history as she has dementia. But the relationship is obviously through her paternal line. <br /><br />We're just trying to figure out who her dad is. Obviously it's a close relation due to the long strands of shared DNA, we would just really love to understand more! She didn't even know she was half Jewish until she got her results back, nor did her or her father that raised her know she was not his child. Crazy stuff and slightly confusing since we don't know who her father is, if he is still alive and how to even go about trying to find out any of those answers.<br /><br />I'd love to get any feedback from you!

On Gedmatch I have about 200 matches on ch.8 which are Ashkenazi as far as I can tell. I haven't yet analyzed my other chromosomes yet because I am still working on this list and triangulating. These matches would be distant. My paternal grandparents were born in Mexico. My mother had one grandmother born in Germany. The rest of her ancestry seems to be Eng/Irish. What do you think?
