Has anyone heard of immigrants coming down to Eastern NC from NJ or New England? I am a participant in a family name DNA testing project and the men in the test group who are not relatives who have the nearest DNA match to mine are descendents of immigrants to NJ and NE. Some believe our families ancestors came down from VA, but the DNA testing so far does not support that conclusion.
