Question

Is there a project about Melungeons? Or Goin(s) from Claiborne County, TN?

Answer 1

There is something related happening in the Appalachia Project. See this space page that is being revamped since Oct 2022:

Answer 2

Lucy is correct.  The Appalachia Project is working on the structure of the Melungeon page.  Eric is the PM of the page/sub-project.  Reach out to him and he can give you all the details and provide some further assistance on researching the Melungeons.

Answer 3

Hi Jo-Ellen,

As Sandy said, please let me know if there is anything I can do to assist you in this area.

As Lucy said, yes, the space page is still in the process of being-reworked. There's a lot of information on the page, but it just needs to be organized better. There's also a lot of work that still needs to be done on Melungeon profiles. I've been working on that part off and on for awhile.
