Links
The second link just goes to a site for dissertations - who knows which one? The full citation should be given in-line, with author and title.--Parkwells (talk) 02:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Ancestry
Please do not change the text - the paper speaks of the group as Melungeons and gives little documentation of relation to the Saponi. It also refers much more to Heinegg's work and documentation of African American ancestry for most of the family names among the group.--Parkwells (talk) 01:41, 23 March 2008 (UTC)


 * please read WP:VERIFY and no original research. The way Wikipedia works is to use reliably published sources, and we do not use editors' personal knowledge, experience, or opinions. are you still watching this page?  Doug Weller  talk 14:41, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks, Doug Weller. Yes, this is on my watch list, but I had not kept up recently. Thank you for your reminder to the contributor on the need for verified sources. I don't think that Heinegg claimed that all people by common surnames were covered by his research, but he showed many by name who were.Parkwells (talk) 15:14, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Paul Heinegg
I was wondering about him so did a search. He won the Donald Lines Jacobus given by the American Society of Genealogists each year to a "model genealogical work" for his Free African-Americans of North Carolina and Virginia in 1994. Doug Weller talk 14:52, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * His work is highly respected because he used so many different sources in an effort to get beyond limited censuses. It was also published in volumes, with an Introduction by noted historian Ira Berlin, a specialist of the South and this period, who praised the work. Heinegg expanded his research to Maryland, Delaware and South Carolina, also publishing updates on the Internet for free, in order to make it available to more researchers.Parkwells (talk) 15:09, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Paul Heinegg has done great work in locating primary source records during the colonial era and early U.S. history but he admitted in an e-mail to me that he had not gone through Kentucky records. Mwamba2020 (talk) 19:46, 15 December 2020 (UTC)


 * the problem is that WP:VERIFY and WP:NOR prohibit us from using his email to you or your knowledge and experience, we need sources meeting WP:RS. Can you help us with that? Doug Weller  talk 15:48, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
