Well iam glad you did read the whole letter. If you have time to flip thru the cyberspace you will come across dozens of sites on the Melungeons. were the referance . Says they were Turks said Portygeediscovered hairy peopleBells , its all written with misintention, they dont tell you the whole story, someone sees a fancy name and people tend to believe what they read, Books Websites CDS are for sale based upon that letter.
Fact is, that noted the Tommahittans [cherokee] put them to death at any given opppurtunity, a Spanish Indian is what? a Mexican up from the supply base in Mexico.
He never said anyone was a Turk at all, he compared the Weesock Indians to some Saracins under the Ottomans 2000 miles away, he notes they kept thier african slaves at a Distance they lived in separate areas. They Spanish knew they wouldnt run becuse the Cherokee would kill them. even if they did make it anywhere the English would just reenslave them anyway,
note at least 2 Englishman were living out there so thats many possbilties were some indians picked English and some blood too.
I WONT SAY WHAT SITES. IVE ALREADY BEEN THRU ONE HASSLE I PREVAILED BUT DONT NEED IT AGAIN,
So if someone collected and filled the bank aleady with information sold and based on that letter as eveidence , sure I suppose folks will resist what iam putting forth.
I think the site was set up for people to discover thier roots and trade information. So if i siad example granpa bill came on this ship this date he had a mulatto child boundout, and Granpa bill was not a turk or portuguses. that is how i meant it,
Anyway im open minded can always readjust anything for a polite request, you got itYou are a good example of someone whos polite and trades iformation.
