Re: Pat Spurlock Elders book which I have not read, but have spoken w/ her and heard her speak, I have to say that she follows Virginia DeMarce's logic and stops at the coastline. DeMarce is the only person I have ever heard who said she did not need to get her Melungeon ancestors beyond the coastline. As you might recognize I thoroughly disagree w/Spurlock/DeMarce's theories, but do applaud their genealogy as far as it has gone.
