The public service chanel here in Everett, Chanel 9 has a show on the
genealogy search for Blacks to find thier genetic makeup. Since I have
traced 3 Mulato lines in 3 different states, Jalisco, Zacatecas and
Michoacan I was very interested in what they had to say. They shared

The public service chanel here in Everett, Chanel 9 has a show on the
genealogy search for Blacks to find thier genetic makeup. Since I have
traced 3 Mulato lines in 3 different states, Jalisco, Zacatecas and
Michoacan I was very interested in what they had to say. They shared
the fact that the Portuguese controlled the slave trade and that in
the time frame I’m looking at, mid 1600’s the odds are the slaves were
from Angola. They shared the major advancments they are making daily
in genetic testing now being able to isolate genes to find what
percentages we are of different ethnic backgrounds. I find this all
very exciting and hope if you get the chance that you will get to
watch this very informative show. Even if you have no black ancestors
the sharing of genetic information and genealogy research methods is
great and well worth watching.
