  • Where Have All the Indians Gone? Native American Eastern Seaboard Dispersal, Genealogy and DNA in Relation to Sir Walter Raleigh’S Lost Colony of Roanoke
    Where Have All the Indians Gone? Native American Eastern Seaboard Dispersal, Genealogy and DNA in Relation to Sir Walter Raleigh’s Lost Colony of Roanoke. Roberta Estes Copyright 2009, all rights reserved, submitted for publication [email protected] or [email protected] Abstract Within genealogy circles, family stories of Native American1 heritage exist in many families whose American ancestry is rooted in Colonial America and traverses Appalachia. The task of finding these ancestors either genealogically or using genetic genealogy is challenging. With the advent of DNA testing, surname and other special interest projects2, tools now exist to facilitate grouping participants in a way that allows one to view populations in historical fashions. This paper references and uses data from several of these public projects, but particularly the Melungeon, Lumbee, Waccamaw, North Carolina Roots and Lost Colony projects3. The Lumbee have long claimed descent from the Lost Colony via their oral history4. The Lumbee DNA Project shows significantly less Native American ancestry than would be expected with 96% European or African Y chromosomal DNA. The Melungeons, long held to be mixed European, African and Native show only one ancestral family with Native DNA5. Clearly more testing would be advantageous in all of these projects. This phenomenon is not limited to these groups, and has been reported by other researchers such as Bolnick (et al, 2006) where she reports finding in 16 Native American populations with northeast or southeast roots that 47% of the families who believe themselves to be full blooded or no less than 75% Native with no paternal European admixture find themselves carrying European or African y-line DNA.

Historical Markers place the location of Galvez’s battery approximately 500 feet south of the Hilton Baton Rouge Capitol Center near the present intersections of North Boulevard and Third Streets. Recent historic map overlays suggest the actual location of the bat- tery was about 300 feet east of the hotel location on Convention Street about midway between Lafayette and Third streets.

STENNIS SPACE CENTER, PEARL RIVER AND HANCOCK COUNTIES, MISSISSIPPI PROJECT NO. FRA‐0023‐00(003)/105494 101000‐102000 By J. Howard Beverly, Clayton Tinsley, Megan Koszarek, Ann Keen, and Ann Wilkinson Prepared by: August 2017 MANAGEMENT SUMMARY This report describes the field and laboratory methods for and the results of a Phase I Archaeological and Cultural Historic Reconnaissance survey conducted for the Mississippi Department of Transportation, the Federal Railroad Administration, and the Hancock County Port and Harbor Commission for a proposed new freight rail line that would provide a direct connection between the Port Bienville Railroad and the Norfolk Southern rail line near Interstate 59, north of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s John C. Stennis Space Center (Project No. FRA‐ 0023‐00(003)/105494 101000‐102000). This connection would provide a second Class 1 rail connection to Port Bienville and the Industrial Park. The Archaeological APE’s boundary is defined as a 100‐foot buffer on either side of the proposed railroad segments. The segments total 38.1 kilometers (23.7 miles) in length, and the Archaeological APE encompasses 575 acres (232.7 hectares). The Revised Port Bienville Short Line Railroad Proposed Cultural Resources Survey Field Methodology, MDO # FRA‐0023‐ 00(003)/105494 101000‐102000, MDAH Project Log #03‐082‐16, (Report # TBA), Hancock and Peal River Counties was reviewed and accepted by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History (MDAH) on May 2, 2016.

    HUMAN BIOLOGICAL VARIATION AND BIOLOGICAL DISTANCE IN PRE-CONTACT FLORIDA: A MORPHOMETRIC EXAMINATION OF BIOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL CONTINUITY AND CHANGE By MARANDA ALMY KLES A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2013 1 © 2013 Maranda Almy Kles 2 To the two people in my life who made this possible: my husband, Joseph Kles, and my mother, Marion Almy. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the support and guidance of many people, probably more than I list here. Firstly I would like to acknowledge my co-chairs Dr. Michael Warren and Dr. John Krigbaum who have helped me become the biological anthropologist I am through their mentorship from my undergraduate years onward. Also, many thanks to Dr. Kenneth Sassaman for piquing my interest in anthropology in his General Anthropology course and second for helping me go from the daughter of an archaeologist to a biological anthropologist who better understands the complexities of the archaeological record. Secondly, I want to acknowledge the people who have provided insight and input on my research. Dr. George Luer, his input and support have helped me immensely. I appreciate the invaluable information provided by Donna Ruhl, Louis Tesar, Dr. Robert Austin, and Dr. David Dickel about sites and collections. Dr. Jerald Milanich, who has been a mentor in various ways and who showed me many years ago that you can blend archaeology, history, and biological anthropology. I am also indebted to Katie Miyar for traveling with me to collections, allowing me to stay in her house while working, and providing me with a supportive ear through this process.
