................................Core Melungeon Y-DNA

As most people know the administrators are not allowed to release the name of the person who gave the sample and family tree will not even list a person who does not give his most distant ancestor, so kit # 319509 most distant ancestor is Nicholas Gibson. The problem is non-family members like Pezzullo wants to be the source for all the Core Melungeons genealogy. We still have the 4 original administrators as listed in our project. The Nicholas Gibson test dated 2013 was not included in the Peer Review.  Jack

Joanne genealogy on Nicholas is the real confusion and does not match his Y-DNA results. The 4 listed below who match him on the 25 marker core Y-DNA meaning at some point in history they had the same male common ancestor, their genealogy by Kathy James.



kit # 319509 Nicholas Gibson is a very close match to almost all the core Gibson Melungeons
