    Dude, the colony was never lost in the first place. They carved a location name into a tree and when people went there to find them, they found Indians with blue eyes. There's no mystery as to where they wound up.

      @@AndyHappyGuy No one knows for sure. If we agree that it was Roanoke colonists who inhabited the area, then we can reasonably surmise that a few of the colonists went to be with the Indians while the main body temporarily stayed at Site X in order to wait out the drought before joining their brethren. It would have been devastating for the Indians to accept the entire group of colonists during this time because there would have been too many mouths to feed.

      I have a few Goins I connect with on ancestry and 23&me. Also have people with the surname Goins for ancestors.
      Not just Goins but Moore, Brown, Adams, Lowery, Collins, Gibson, Evans, Goodman, Berry, Ransom... and more. Lots of ancestors from North and South Carolina ( some of which seem like they magically appeared there ( brick walls). Then of course Virginia and a few of them followed the same migration patterns of other melungeons ( Tennessee, Missouri, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas. Most are 3rd cousins to distant. 23&me does show West African and North African/Western Asian ( Egypt, Levant, Arabic).

    I was adopted from NC Robeson county in 1975 and adopted then too. My paperwork from the adoption said my birth father was blonde hair blue eyes andy mother is brown hair brown eyes. I have Scottish descent too. Possibly Jamestown links and possibly the DNA from denisovans and possibly a minute percentage of DNA from either the dutch gaul Assyrians mesopotamia or sumerian in very minute percentages. I am stick in Alabama trying to get to NC to get a real genetics test at unc Pembroke in a lumbee county. Just to see. Dime people in my life since 1975 are trying to prevent me from finding north relatives and from getting my own birth certificate. Some in my ex wifes family and ex coworkers wanted me out of the way for father's days sndy children's birth days over something personal and political they might have led some people I know into violence over it since 1987. I have to have the dna test first.

    A very noble effort, but I think it would be easy to find people in that area with both native and European DNA. That proves absolutely nothing unless you could find someone in England who is known to be a direct descendant of the colonists and who could be matched with someone in eastern North Carolina. I think the obvious conclusion is that the colonists were killed by the natives of the area. To me, the thing that would be conclusive is that after the colony disappeared there was no oral or written history that remained, no one who has claimed to be a grandson, no letters. There's nothing. They just vanished. Had someone survived wouldn't there be any letters or correspondence. Out of 115 people wouldn't someone have tried to make it back to England?

      I agree that anyone who has European and Native could just be a good guess.. also agree that they should look for people in England who are known to be ancestors and match North/South Carolina. However, there are quite a few oral stories and some "proof" of mixed groups being encountered by Europeans in early colonial Carolinas.

There were 115 colonists and not one of them ever made it back to England. Nor is there any written correspondence from any of the colonists indicating that they survived. And there is no one in eastern North Carolina claiming to be a descendant-----someone who could be matched to a known descendant in England through DNA. To me the most logical outcome wouldhave been that they were all killed by the natives of the area

With a red head native Russian with green eyes or amber eyes. The denisovan dna covers Scandinavian Icelandic Gaul welsh Siberian. Most native males have different shaped lips due to paternal dna. Mine are different because the mitochondrial dna in mothers that is circular in the mitochondria in each cell can be traced. Only 2 percent of paternal mitochondrial dna leaks through to babies at birth.

    But didn't we all descend from Adam? This is why we can't have world Peace. We should be treating each other as brothers and sisters not competing against each other to see which race is best.

      Mr. Brown has a European ancestor, but not necessarily a Roanoke ancestor. I think that there were Roanoke settlers who survived and assimilated into the local cultural groups. With that said, seventeenth century European DNA among Native Americans can be also attributed to European shipwrecked people, traders, and fisherman . It could also be attributed to Latin American colonists. If Native Americans were taken to Europe, the offspring they produced with European partners could have if they returned to the New World, contributed to European DNA to the Native American gene pool.
