Dear Freda and K-listers, I was pretty stunned when she disclosed it. She gave no "year" information, or much else, just a name and a place, and that the relation was a gg-grandfather. We agreed to share genealogical information and I will try to do that ASAP, and get this back to the K-Board. I have been able to pick apart the Walton County GA KILGOREs who are represented in the Federal census, pretty well. There are several lines in Walton alone, probably all connected to a common ancestor. These particular KILGOREs though are not my direct ancestors. I suspect that we may found out how the Thomas Kilgore of Harbins, Gwinnett County, GA who is represented in the DNA study is tied in.

My James Kilgo, b 1777 in Wake, NC, was the s/o Peter and achel Hunter. He moved with that group from Wake to Clarke Co., GA, to winnett, and then to Walton. Fortunately he was on the 1850 census. There were everal other Kilgores there too. I know there was Peter Sr. There was a Peter W on the 1850 census, with wife Sarah. I am sure all of these men were connected. here was a discussion several years ago on this board about Melungeons. I elieve it was Jack Goins that initiated it, stating that he was a elungeon. They are described as tri-racial. No one seems to know exactly the aces but believe they are part Indian, black, and white. The white was possibly ortuguese, Spanish or Mediterranean. eep us posted about the Walton Co Peter Kilgore. reda Kilgo Daniel -- On Thu, 12/10/09, kilgorecp@cs.com <kilgorecp@cs.com> wrote: rom: kilgorecp@cs.com <kilgorecp@cs.com> ubject: Re: [KILGORE] Kilgore- Mulatto Stepson of Peter Kilgore ( 1709) o: kilgore@rootsweb.com ate: Thursday, December 10, 2009, 4:46 PM Regarding Peter Kilgore: Funny you should mention that. Last week, I met a young woman of Black African escent who, in routine conversation, identifed Peter Kilgore of Walton County s her great-great-grandfather. I asked her about the Thomas Kilgore of arbins, Gwinnett County GA in the DNA study, and she didn't know about him. I m in DeKalb County GA, and intend to go back and compare genealogies with the oung lady. She told me she has done extensive work on her families. I'll post hatever she lets me in on.

This is probably the same Mary who was und later "living in sin with Peter Kilgore" in Spottsylvania Co, VA 1722 ( A Peter Kilgore appeared in Lancaster Co. records as early 1677). They agreed to marry to avoid prosecution & a few weeks ter, their marriage filing appeared in [neighboring] "King George , VA records on Nov. 1, 1722. th this child being a Kilgore stepson as opposed to a biological son Peter, his YDNA would probably not match any of our Kilgore lines unless HIS father's father was a Kilgore. ------------------------------ unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to KILGORE-request@rootsweb.com ith the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of e message ------------------------------ o unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to KILGORE-request@rootsweb.com ith the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of he message ------------------------------ o unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to KILGORE-request@rootsweb.com ith the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of he message
