Lumbee Origins: The Weyanoke-Kearsey Connection

Authors

J. Cedric Woods, University of Conneticut

Abstract

To determine the historic Virginia tribe or tribes from which the Lumbee may be descended, I have decided to search the records of North Carolina and Virginia and see where surnames linked to the Lumbee in the eighteenth, nineteenth, and early twentieth centuries appear. My goal is to see which, if any, have documented ties to specific Virginia Indian communities.
