Well, that's what happens when you're away for a few
days and you start plowing through messages in reverse
order of date sent. I didn't catch the beginning of
the thread, I was simply responding to Geoff Howard's
request for documentation of a blond Native American.
I had just run across it a few days previously in a
collection of documents from 17th century Virginia and
thought I'd share.

I don't think a single white Indian implies anything
more than a single white Indian. For that matter, I
don't see how skin, hair or eye color says anything
one way or another about an individual's Y chromosome.
