I dare any of these folks to do a "23andMe" test.  The Aryan race, wherever they're located, is always mixed with the races they hate.

Well, I did and it turned up what most who have families from the south might suspect. My great grandmother 7 times removed ancestors were from West Africa on the main. I have her name, and my grandfather loved her, they were married until death parted them.

98.1 NW European, and 94.8 British Isles/Ireland, but my heart melted for those 2 back in 1755. If my grandfather knew, he would of freaked out. My father would have accepted it happily I believe. He was a gentle soul.

Yeah, same.  Family came over in the 1600s, My great, great, great, great grandfather was an officer in Col. Campbell's Virginia regiment during the Revolutionary War.  I have African and Cherokee and a bazillion cousins of various pedigrees including the "Lees of Virginia".

1648 for my Father's family. Out of Wales & Ireland. Fought in most every conflict after that from what I gather, on the wrong side of the CW of course.
