This was just posted in RootsWeb Review. I quickly reviewed the lesson and visited some of the web sites about Native American, Melungeon and Black Dutch or Black Irish. Some great information and resources. And the lessons are free! By the way, if you do not subscribe to RootsWeb Review, I would suggest you consider it. It is a weekly publication and full of helpful articles and information.
