This is interesting. My James Kilgo, b 1777 in Wake, NC, was the s/o Peter and Rachel Hunter. He moved with that group from Wake to Clarke Co., GA, to Gwinnett, and then to Walton. Fortunately he was on the 1850 census. There were several 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. There was a discussion several years ago on this board about Melungeons. I believe it was Jack Goins that initiated it, stating that he was a Melungeon. They are described as tri-racial. No one seems to know exactly the races but believe they are part Indian, black, and white. The white was possibly Portuguese, Spanish or Mediterranean. Keep us posted about the Walton Co Peter Kilgore.

Last week, I met a young woman of Black African descent who, in routine conversation, identifed Peter Kilgore of Walton County as her great-great-grandfather. I asked her about the Thomas Kilgore of Harbins, Gwinnett County GA in the DNA study, and she didn't know about him. I am in DeKalb County GA, and intend to go back and compare genealogies with the young lady. She told me she has done extensive work on her families. I'll post whatever she lets me in on.
