The above query has nothing to do with my email commenting upon the fact that journalists go everywhere everyday looking for stories, so the " fact " stated that " journalists have only been sent to Newman's ridge " is as silly as this current thread.Kelly Pritchard

Howdy Kelly; We are talking about an historical fact, not what Dromgoole wrote, but the fact she came to Newmans Ridge in the first place. You can call it whatever you want, but you are not going to change a historical fact with an opinion. I have listed historical documents to prove where the Meliungeons where and to ask you to show the same this is not silly, it's called research. Here is another one for you to ponder1872 Chattanoga trial and this satement by that attorney, Lewis Shepard Chattanooga, Tennessee Also, on page 88 he wrote The term Melungeon is an East Tennessee provincialism; it was coined by the people of that county to apply to these people. Now if you want to claim Dromgool did noty come to this county, respect is site your source. Frank <A HREF="http://melungeon_music.tripod.com/melungeonmusic/">Melungeon Music
