People from all over have various bumps and ridges on the back of
their heads. I've searched the physical anthropology literature
and asked physical anthropologists about the "Anatolian bump"
as an indicator of Turkish ancestry. No one has ever heard of
it and it's not in the scientific literature. Now the burden
of proof is on Melungeon mythologists to come up with some
evidence and logical explanation for their hypothesis. I
wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that to happen. Identity
myths are more r

Here is a link for "The Certificate Program in Native American Indian
Studies" at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. I post these links
to the list because genealogy involves more than just researching "the
names". Often times "the American Indian history" and "the where" is just
as important as "the who" in genealogy studies.

Why are you saying that I am being Hostile, I am only stating
the Truth, there is no such thing as an Indian Maiden.
What is Hostile about that ???
Hostile...Is saying that one's Family member is an Indian Maiden, And
that is an Insult to all Native American's, And Being a Vet has nothing
to do with it.
I am not trying to be Rude, I am only stating the True Fact's.
No one that is a True American Indian would ever say that, If one
want's to say that about a
Family Member that's Fine

Thanks for the info. about the Osage Tribe names. It can certainly make it
difficult to trace a family lineage - for outsiders.
One of my Native Sister Veterans (Pine Ridge Sioux) told me that they
hyphenate their surnames with the mother's and the father's to bring honor
to the mother's family. [Mother's surname-Father's surname].

it is true :) Backatcha !!

I encourage you to continue reading and perhaps not dump a condescending
dismissal upon those who are interested in learning about a particular

Here are a few Native Language links that I thought may help with genealogy
searches. There are 'several reasons' for name designations or name
changes. Sometimes names were changed by a direct translation, from Native
to English - then sometimes names were changed because they were misspelled,
often times names indicate specific regions...

I guess this is a dumb question, but are names from all the old and/or
disbanded Siouan-speaking Monacan Nation tribes on the Monacan Rolls that
you mentioned?
The families I talked to claimed to be from the disbanded Nahyssan who I
understand were once a part of the Monacan Nation although not necessarily
the Monacan tribe.
This gets confusing to me about whether the Monacan tribe proper and the
other-named tribes (like Saponi or Nahyssan) are considered Monacan or not.
Thanks!
Best wishes,

There is only one Monacan Indian Roll and you will not find it
on the internet as I have explained. We can not and will not publish the
Monacan Indian Rolls due to the waiting Federalization of the Monacan
Tribe along with the other 7 tribes of Virginia.
If you don't believe me try the Monacan Indian head quarters its self.
and you will be told the same thing. This is not just a roll for genealogy
this Tribal roll is the life blood of its people.its not like the Chereokee

As a list member for over a year now, I have been content to remain silent.
Now, I feel as though I must take a stand and agree with Morning Star.
I am formally trained in Osage Beginning Stories and Osage Traditions, as

ways any more relaible than the Indian.

Hi Thomas F Brown: I have read some of the Melungeon information because
my family ended up in the Cumberland Gap during the late 1700's and 1800's.
And the information became much more interesting when I came across the
"anatolian bump" information. I am not agreeing that it exists nor am I
disagreeing. But, I am a 61 yr old grandmother who has a great curiosity
about the origins,not only of my family, but of all of us everywhere. Now,
I do have a "bump" on the back of my head at the locatio

Dear Runningfast
Why are you so hostile at someone for trying to search. The person's words
may not be the words you would chose but it does not mean their heart is not
sincere.
Do you know that there is a Cherokee prophecy that says we will all come home
with white faces

Emancipation records are usually found in the county deed books. I
found one in a Charles Co., MD deed book where a group of men got together
and freed a slave woman because she made anti-French remarks at a social
event that they were attending. Also most free blacks had certificates of
freedom that should be recorded in the county deed books or in a separate
register. The freedom certificates often stated whether an individual
was born free or was emancipated. Jerry Hynson has abstracted freedom
