My husbands descends from Rueben and Priscilla (bolton) Breedlove, (1850 hamilton co. tenn.) His GGGuncle always said they were of Spaniard and German decent, We now know with proof of the "Great Melungeon Trial" of Hamilton Co. Tenn. in the 1870's that the Boltons were of Spaniard decent, So this would leave the Breedlove's as German decent. In our family of course, and without proof. Suzie
