Hi
I have been desperately searching on the link between myself and a DNA match. using all the information we have for our joined DNA matches we have narrowed it down using the probability tool on DNA painter, to her father being the child of a relative of ours. She has a high match (460cm) and this link would match with them being half cousins.
The only possible way is that her father was the child of the relative, but he grew up with another family and my DNA match doesn't have any matches on this families side at all except for a photo where her dad looks like his grandfather (paternal). So my thought is that he was the product of an affair between the woman relative to me and the man he grew up with.
Probably sounds stupidly convoluted! however, his birth registration has both parents listed. Could, a birth be registered with the incorrect mother/parents?
What makes this a little bit more bizarre is that he grew up in Kent, yet moved to London and my match lived literally down the road from her half cousin
