Subject: Re: [MELUNGEON] Core Melungeons - Correction
Just to set the record strait on a Core Melungeon. 1st , One can have a core
Melungeon surname, such as Bolling, Bolin, Collins, Goins, Gibson,Goodman,
Minor, Williams etc, etc. and not be a core Melungeons and do not claim to
be Melungeons.
When you open the core public site you will see the Surname list, but when
you scroll down the page you will see this paragraph of additional names.
Some names are Bunch, Goins, Gibson, Minor, Collins, Williams, Goodman,
Denham,Bolin, Mullins, Moore, Shumake, Bolton, Perkins, Mornings, Menleys,
Breedlove,Hopkins, Mallett, with various spellings of these names. More
names maybe added as our research continues.
Members in the Core project, or any Family Tree Project can join other
groups, They go to their home page and select Join a project. We have
several that are in the Gibson, Cumberland Gap and we have some in the core
who are also in Melungeon_Families. This right to select other projects a
right given by Family Tree DNA - Knowing who is in the core is the job of
the Administrators. When FTDNA began the Family Finder Test this opened the
door for many family who had distant known Melungeon Ancestors to Join the
project.
We now have a core Melungeon mtDNA project, so the name you see may not be
a core name, but the ancestor they seek are core Melungeons. Any other
question you may have email me privately at Jack Goins
