Brass Ankles--Per Dr. Brent Kennedy's book, The Melungeons, (mercer Univ. press, 1997) p.151: ...the "Brass Ankles" of Carolina were so named for the metal bracelets they wore, longstanding evidence of their own metalworking abilities." There are many other references to Bunches and brass ankles in the book and at the melungeon homepage.
