Hi Everybody! Some of you on this list may be interested in learning more about a fascinating group of people called Melungeons, especially if your family comes from northeast TN, southeast KY, northwest NC or southwest VA. If you have any questions about the article below, please write to me directly at [email protected] Thanks! -Kay ****** Recent books and documentaries on Appalachia's mysterious Melungeons have led many people to search for their Melungeon roots. A genealogy workshop at Berea College may provide help for those who are seeking information about their families and possible Melungeon connections. "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" will be held on the Berea College campus on Saturday, June 26. This event will feature sessions on beginning, intermediate, and Internet genealogy, as well as specific sessions to explore Native American and African-American connections. There will also be chat sessions for various family groups, a showing of a documentary film about the Melungeons, and a panel discussion featuring Brent Kennedy, Manuel Mira, and others.. The Melungeons are a multi-racial and multi-ethnic people who were first documented in the Appalachian mountains at the end of the 18th century. Since that time, they have become a part of Appalachian folklore - "sons and daughters of the legend." Prior to the Civil War, some were classified as "free persons of color." More recently, they have been identified by anthropologists and sociologists as "tri-racial isolates" - an amalgam of European, Native American, and African-American ancestry. They faced discrimination, both legal and social, and tended to settle in isolated communities such as Newman's Ridge in Hancock County, Tennessee, or Stone Mountain, Virginia. Over the years, Melungeons kept to themselves -- or moved to other areas where their heritage was not suspect. Oral history among Melungeon families was often not shared with succeeding generations. "Melungeon" had become an epithet, even if no one knew where the word originated. Jean Patterson Bible wrote in 1975 that generations of intermarriage has resulted in near racial dissolution: "They'll be gone in a generation or two, except for an occasional dark-complected [sic] child as a reminder of the past." Instead, many Melungeon descendants are coming to recognize and embrace the diverse heritage that is theirs. They've been encouraged and inspired by Dr. N. Brent Kennedy, author of the 1994 book The Melungeons: The Resurrection of A Proud People; An Untold Story of Ethnic Cleansing in America. Kennedy, in researching his own family background, concludes that the Melungeons were descended from groups of Spaniards, Portuguese, Turks, Berbers, Moors, Jews, and others who arrived on these shores between the arrival of Columbus and the establishment of Jamestown. Generations of intermarriage with Europeans, Native Americans, and African-Americans resulted in the people now known as Melungeons. Participants may pre-register before June 1, for "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" by sending a check or money order to: Melungeon Roots, P.O. Box 4042, Wise, VA 24293. Admission to the event is $5 for each pre-registered participant (before June 1), and $10 for those who register after June 1 and for on-site registrants. On-site registration begins Friday, June 25, at 7:00 pm at the Alumni Building on the Berea campus. The Melungeon Heritage Association, Inc. will hold a mixer on Friday night at the Alumni Building from 7 to 9 pm. Workshops will begin on Saturday morning at 9:00 am at Phelps-Stokes Hall, with welcoming remarks by Audie Kennedy, president of the Melungeon Heritage Association, Inc., and Gordon McKinney of the Berea College Appalachian Center. Workshops will be held in the Frost Building and Phelps Stokes chapel. Chat groups will be running all day at various locations on campus. Throughout the day, "Melungeon Roots" will feature "how-to" genealogy sessions as well as sessions on Native American, African-American, and Portuguese-American genealogy. A panel discussion with a question-and-answer session will close the workshop. "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" is sponsored by the Appalachian Center at Berea College, continuing the college's long tradition of commitment to Appalachia and to diversity. The event is organized by the Melungeon Heritage Association, Inc. (MHA), a non-profit organization formed in 1998. MHA was an outgrowth of the highly successful First Union: A Melungeon Gathering held in Wise in 1997. In 1998, MHA sponsored Second Union, an even larger gathering which featured sessions and lectures on history, social issues, and medical issues, as well as genealogy. The gatherings are only a part of the work of MHA. The organization is also dedicated to several other tasks, including continued research and writing, telling the story of the Melungeon people, and contributing to the mosaic of a past that has been hidden too long. At the same time, MHA plans to collect and preserve the research and artifacts of the past, forming the basis of a Melungeon Research Center to give these materials a permanent home. MHAs mission is to document and preserve the heritage and cultural legacy of mixed- ancestry people of the Southern Appalachians. While the focus will be on those of Melungeon heritage, they do not restrict themselves to honoring only this group, but believe in the dignity of all such mixed ancestry groups. MHA is committed to preserving this rich heritage of racial diversity and harmony. MHA plans to hold Third Union in the summer of 2000. In the meantime, "Melungeon Roots" is the first of several planned smaller events which will focus on individual aspects of Melungeon heritage. PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: MELUNGEON ROOTS "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" will be held on the Berea College campus in Berea, Kentucky, on Saturday, June 26. This event will feature sessions on beginning, intermediate, and Internet genealogy, as well as specific sessions on other aspects of Melungeon genealogy. To register, send five dollars per registrant to Melungeon Roots, P.O. Box 4042, Wise, VA 24293.
I just received a phone call from Jack Bailey of Harrodsburg. He announces the release of his new edition of "Bury Me At Dixville," long a standard but out-of-print genealogy resource for central Ky researching. The previous edition was so popular that the Mercer County Public Library was unable to prevent even its reproduced copies from being stolen, and I had to wait for an original owner to die in order to get my copy! The new book has 832 pages, 505 of which are text and the remainder annotated family photographs, newspaper clippings, wedding and birth announcements, school items, etc. (The previous edition of "Dixville" was a mere 119 pages in comparison.) Dixville is situated in the Deep Creek area of western Mercer County, near the conjunction of Mercer, Washington, and Boyle counties. The book features the Patterson, Divine/Devine, Leonard, Bugg, and Claunch families of the area, and also has large numbers of Baileys, Hatchells, Careys, Logues, Durhams, Whoberrys, and others. Jack says that the book will be ready for mailing Monday, March 22nd. The price is $65 (postpaid), and is presented loose-leaf in a 3-ring notebook binder. Orders should be sent to: Jack D. Bailey 527 Scenic Hills Dr Harrodsburg KY 40330-8631

Here is the answer to (nonsubscriber) Darlene's question to me yesterday about the possible destruction of Anderson County courthouse files in the past due to fires. Thanks, Shelby, for your very useful information. I'm sending it on to the whole list because I doubt that many of us were aware of this, and it will be a good addition to the list archives.

Walter Moore was the son of Jesse Moore and Susan Robinson. He was born Dec. 1885, in either Franklin or Jefferson Counties in Kentucky. His father Jesse and his brother James died in 1915. Lost track of Walter after the 1900 Ky. census. Both his father and his brother worked for the railroad and he may have also. His mother was in the 1910 census with Jesse in Louisville, Ky. But, when Jesse died in 1915 in Anderson Co., Ky., the information on his death certificate was given by Jesse's sister Mrs. S. C. Cryer. Would like to know what happened to both Walter and his mother Susan Robinson Moore. Thanks. BB

Date: Monday, March 01, 1999 11:07 AM Subject: State Censuses; WHERE??? Since so many people have asked about where to get state censuses I will reply to the whole list. If you have access to a family history center (run by the LDS church), you can order the microfilm. The fee is $3.50 for a five week rental. The film is there for your use only. If you need to renew then you pay another $3.50. It takes about 2 weeks to arrive from Salt Lake (sometimes longer, sometimes less). All family history centers are equipped with microfilm readers and should also have copiers. The centers vary greatly on other data (books, in stock films, in stock fiche). They vary mainly due to differences in who is the head librarian and how much budget. (And believe me the budget is very, very, very small.) It is possible that there are other places to obtain these censuses, but I don't have first hand knowledge. Maybe someone else on the list has ideas. I also do not know exactly what is on each census. I have only seen one, and that was one from about 1870 in Wyoming. I imagine each state varied on what it needed depending upon the reason for the census. I know the one that I saw was really good. Lot of data. And I promise to spell check everything from now on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello, I apologize that in my earlier query I asked about Sheriffs of Anderson Co.KY What I had meant to ask is whether anyone has a list of the Police Chiefs of the town of Tyrone,KY. I have been told that my 2nd Great-Grandfather, Nathaniel Andrew Jackson Robards/Roberts was the Police Chief in Tyrone around the turn of the century. I have no proof, just family history.
