DNA Hints

DNA Hint #1: 10 generations ago, neither Pocahontas nor her forbears had traversed the Big Pond. My direct branch got here in 1718, my 5th G-Grandfather. His cousins got here in 1610, 4 generations previous to that. If she has American Indian Blood, it is clear that her forbears picked it up in the Old Country, not an impossible feat. It is also possible that her 10th G-Grandparents were dropped off at Martha’s Vineyard by Coronado for a little R&R for all the hard work they had done growing tobacco in the islands.
DNA Hint #2: Somebody’s lyin” 
Once again, it’s just a simple case of basic math, as are Autosomnal DNA calculations.
