About Melungeon DNA studies: huffingtonpost.com

My former father-in-law, who hailed from Hope, Arkansas, could have been described as Melungeon, though he never claimed to be. Olive skin, blue eyes and dark hair. His mother, who was as nutty as fruitcake, claimed to be from some rich Mississippi family who had lost everything in the War Between the States, so she had to settle for my FIL’s working class father.

I could tell more stories, but I shan’t.
