Dennis, How can they have a common ancestry if their DNA doesn't match?

Quoting Dennis: "The Melungeons and their descendants are, however, a group
of people -- a
population -- with a common ancestry. DNA analysis can be done to determine
that ancestry. That's a population study, and that's what the Melungeon DNA
study was all about."
