[quote=Anonymous]THERe are several old threads here about AA ancestry. While many AA are the product of sexual contact between the enslaved and their enslavers, many are also the product of consensual unions between white women and black men. My family has mixed ancestry from both types of unions. DH traced one white ancestor who kept a free black mistress. She had two children with him. Those children both married free black women. You would not assume from looking at him that he has any aeurioean ancestry. People also find out sometimes that a white ancestor is more recent than the antebellum period. Like from the Jim Crow era. Again, some rapes, but also some contacts that might have been voluntary. We pretty much assume my great-grandmother had my grandmother due to rape by a white employer. She came home to give birth, but did not waste a second trying to mother the child. [/quote]
