Genealogists Dr. Virginia E. DeMarce and Paul Heinegg, as well as Melungeon descendant Jack Goins, have traced the "core" Gibson and Collins families back to Louisa County, Virginia in the early 1700s. [3], [4] , [5] These families were of mixed European and African, and possibly also of Native American, heritage, and are identified as "mulattos" and "blacks" in subsequent records. The Gibson family can be traced back even further to Charles City County, Virginia in the late 17th century. According to genealogist Paul Heinegg, the Gibson family probably derived from Elizabeth Chavis, whose descendants are called "mulattos" and "negros."[6] The Chavis family was an early and large mixed-race family in several Eastern Virginia and North Carolina counties. Today, Chavis and its variants (originally Chavez) is one of the most widespread of the surnames associated with "tri-racial isolate" groups in the Eastern U.S., though it is not a typical Melungeon surname.
These families migrated in the first half of the 18th century from Virginia to North and South Carolina. The Collins, Gibson, and Ridley (Riddle) families owned land adjacent to one another in Orange County, North Carolina, where they and the Bunch family were "free Molatas (mulattos)" taxable on "Black" tithes in 1755. [7], [8]
So the the 2 top experts fully credentialed and excpeted as experts in the academic world along with Pual Costa put it on a platter as it. I myself dont see why people have such hard it adjusting to it. With Costa new additions of the Goans being in the mix its scientific historic and the plain truth.
I disagree with the name Chavis and origins which are Irish but sound Hispanic Shiffers , just depedened on the scribe of the time.
