Doesn't surprise me. We North Americans are a mongrel lot. Let's hear it for hybrid vigor!

In my case my Granfather's father's family had a tradition of Arawak Indian ancestry -
and certainly some of my remoter connections on that side *LOOK* rather Arawak. However
the surfacing of sickle-cell trait in a cousin's children and other things have made us
wonder if the Arawak story was just a cover for African blood. Or quite possibly g-grandpa had both.

So - where do I send my brother?
