Helen you seem to have a problem with genealogist, which is exactly where
Joanne is coming from, You cannot, or do not,. present any logical debate,
instead of presenting your own research using your references, you give a
link to another theory, that suits you own opinions etc.

I have no problem with finding Jews, Arabs, Indians Blacks etc in my family
tree using the standard genealogical method with documentation. or DNA.
This latest Jewish/Melungeon surname list and DNA being presented as
factual on your website, In my opinion is just another Internet group of
Wannabees. They become so convinced their ancestors were extraordinary, that
they will even try to rewrite history if necessary to make it true. I am
convinced there is an overwhelming majority of folks who will challenge and
demand they present factual records, only the facts will prevail. DNA
without genealogy is useless and you have this so called Melungeon DNA
posted on your website. Do you have the genealogy to prove this
Jewish/Melungeon claim ? Can you prove this in a court of law? Maybe to
protect yourself you should post this statement by Donald Panther Yates on
your website, including the link below for a fair and unbalanced view.

"Bennett has repeatedly assured both Beth and me that there is no such
thing as Jewish DNA. Strictly speaking, its true." And he states
that even some Arabs and Muslims test positive for the Cohen gene. For a
frequency chart by populations for various haplotypes see:
