The Melungeons
:
N. B. Kennedy and R. V. Kennedy,
The Melungeons: The Resurrection of a Proud People: An Untold Story of Ethnic Cleansing in America
(Macon, GA: Mercer University Press, 1997). As outlandish as the idea seems that some Melungeons may have descended from settlers who arrived in the United States before Jamestown, or even who came from Roanoke, it’s not that different from another legend-turned-fact further up the East Coast. The stories that Vikings sailed to North America long before the Spanish or the British were considered a fantasy until the 1960s, when the remains of a Norse settlement were dug up in Newfoundland.

late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries
:
This study’s method of selecting subjects was similar to the Viking surname and the Y chromosome study. By choosing names that were independently associated with Viking history and then examining subjects who bore those names for a Viking Y, the researchers in that study maximized the chance that they would find a historical trace of Viking men. In the Melungeon study, by using one of the only independent records of Melungeons that exist, the researchers were able to narrow their focus much more effectively.
people have shovel-shaped incisors
:
Finnish people have shovel-shaped incisors too. It’s thought that as the ancient Asian travelers moved into Beringia, they left some genes in the Finnish Sami population.
“For some reason, people”
:
Quotes from Richard Scott in this chapter are from my interview with him.
single letter within a single gene
:
Variation in the trait is affected by a single letter of DNA; for example, if a particular spot in the gene is filled by a C, then the carrier has wet earwax. If instead the spot is filled by a T, the carrier will have dry earwax. Customers of 23andMe can find out which earwax gene they have. They can also find out if they have the gene that controls the flush reaction to alcohol and the gene that controls the ability to taste bitter tastes, among others.

They are isolated during this time and not allowed to touch anyone, even their own children, for the first seven days of a period and for forty days after the birth of a son and eighty days after the birth of a daughter.
