Kristi Lami is a confirmed DNA member of the group. Kristi Lami is the host of “Are You Related to Morgan Plantagenet?” located in the same free section of their Global Intelligence based Ancestry Platform.

If you do match their terms for inclusion, we recommend that you add your own GED kit match number for inclusion in the Ancestry Preservation Project helping to solve cold cases in health and for the medical welfare of all.
“I can NOT process a PRIVATE kit. The members of this group all tie back genetically to the of Melungeons of northeast Tennessee, southeastern Kentucky, and southwestern Virginia. From our historical discovery as an isolated mountain community, we have been tri-racial. We also show the results of bottle necking due to isolation and marital definition.”
