This is why I'm having a hard time locating. My family are descendants from both Slave and White Jewish.. thinking Massenburgs. My mother is Esther Winfield and her brother was Arthur Winfield. Their Father was Arthur Winfield <-- My Grandfather. His Parents where Harold and Josephina Winfield. They had another son Harold Winfield. <---My Grandfathers Brother (My mothers' Uncle). They were from some part of VA originally. Petersburg and/or Sussex. My mom says her Great-Grandmother was Jewish. This is odd for you didn't her of a white woman with a black man at all back then. My mom did say she came all the way to from VA to Philadelphia to visit them and that it was real hush hush. She also said her Grandfather looked Mixed so it could of been his mother, but she is not sure. She also said she had an Aunt Martha who would come up to visit. I know of the lineage of Charles Winfield, but Harold is missing. Also know of the Massenburgs but can't find the connection. Anythi! ng you got to assist would be so helpful.
