1860 is not even a long time ago in the grand scheme of things, but Liv Tyler having some type of African heritage is interesting and a pleasant surprising at the same time.
She is beautiful for sure. I think she was cast perfectly in lord of the rings as elrons daughter arwen. She did great interviews for that movie and said that learning the elvish language and wearing arwen's clothing was really fun for her and made her feel super feminine.
What is cool about this is that when we ran our DNA, we found a distant relative at or near the time of the American Revolution that was from West Africa. It was fun and exciting. Our family moved to Kentucky and Tennessee and settled in an area where many mixed race settled. There was a mini-migtaion of mixed race families at that time. It was fun to know.
Trust if Europeans had left Africans alone then this whole mixing thing would've never happened. The Most High God hasn't forgotten about the evil things Europeans did to blacks during slavery

Guys, guys, take it easy. According wikipedia : : Tyler attended the Congressional School of Virginia ('in Falls Church, Va'), the Breakwater School (Portland) , and Waynflete School in Portland, Maine,[16][17][18] before returning to New York City with her mother at age 12 " So aparently she grew up in Virginia, Maine ánd NYC ..
@PatrickRockwell24she also said she grew up in nyc in this video. Why be rude? Why would the person who said she was their neighbor make that up? She had many homes I’m sure.
I agree. Also look at the person above Robert. They're recorded as 'm' for mulato as well without it being written heavily. I think they made a mistake and wrote 'w' first then wrote the 'm' over it.

Liv Tyler is so open about the possibility of her ancestors being enslaved. Usually the other way around as descendants of slavers! Also, Liv believed Todd Rundgren was her father until her mother fessed up about being a groupie (and getting pregnant by Steven Tyler!). Liv is mellow. 💚
Not exactly what happened, they still used to hang out with Steven Tyler and his other kids and Liv noticed the resemblance between herself and Mia Tyler, I doubt her mother said 'I was a groupie Honey' she just admitted that Steven Tyler was her biological father.
@@natashaa43 Of course her mom didn’t say that! But she also didn’t tell Liv because er, maybe she didn’t know? But Steven’s genes are strong! He’s awesome and so is Liv! 💋
I am reading a book entitled the Boy Soldiers of the Revolution, and if Robert was a drummer, he could've been younger when the war started and therefore not big enough to handle a weapon. Robert also could've been volunteered by his "guardian." Liv should inquire to see if Robert filed for a military pension in the 1830's.
The guardian was Captain Wright. In those days it was statistically unlikely that he was in the Regular Army. So probably a militia officer who would have served at the mentioned Battle of Plattsburgh with his regiment alongside Robert.

Indentured servitude is such an interesting concept. I learned that my German ancestor who first came to America in the early 1700s was brought over by a wealthy Dutch man. He spent a decade essentially serving the man in various capacities, and upon earning his release headed out west and became a cowboy for some years to make his money before returning and settling in West Virginia where the family remained for several generations. The family went on to be split during the Civil War, some fighting for the Union, others for the South. Gotta love history!
Please don't insert yourself into the African slavery discussion. Your ancestors were not subjected to Jim Crow segregation because of their skin color or country/continent of Origin
I've been to Ausable Chasm and got to see Elephant Rock. I've been to Plattsburgh many times because Plattsburgh is only 24 miles from the campground we went to for about 15 years named Blue Haven Campground in Ellenburg, NY. What Steven and Liv may not know is that Orville Gibson was born in Chateaugay, New York which is roughly 40 miles from Plattsburgh, NY.

Ms. Liv Tyler. Your ancestors lived a good grounded life under conditions of a particular lineage of a choice not of their own. To be able to survive through those years without much lost of life is of good fortune and talent today. The uncovering of Mulatto and Caucasian indentured servants is significant and leading to many Caucasian and Multiracial persons going further into genealogy research from the Atlantic coast north and south to tell and write the stories of hardship and triumphs years later but also a historical context that connect families to whom they are. Blessings on your continued search and new findings of many cultures and ethnicities.
Hmmmmm… I don’t believe Robert Elliott was an “indentured servant” to Capt Elliott as a child. Makes no sense. Especially during that time. What makes more sense is that Capt Elliott fathered Robert with a slave and kept him with him as a servant during the war.
Yep. Besides that, it's quite a stretch to make "guardianship" of a boy first mean that the boy must have been an indentured servant of Captain Wright and then turn that into another form of slavery. Indentured servitude meant that someone paid off a loan by working for someone until that debt was paid off. That's not the case here, since we're talking about a boy.
@@sistahb5159 Actually Who Do You Think You are? debuted in Britain in 2004 and in the U.S. on March 5, 2010. Finding Your Roots made it's debut March 25, 2012.
So I am an Elliott in England. I traced fam back to northumberland in uk - it was recorded as Elliot. I believe it goes back into Scotland but I couldn’t trace it on the Elliot line. I did trace my female line back to a marriage in Edinburgh in seventeenth century. But yes, you probably;y have Scottish roots
I disagree with the comment by the historian about the "m" for mulato being emphasised. If you look avoe Robert's name there is another person noted as 'm' for mulato. Perhaps the recorded originally wrote 'w' as a mistake and wrote the 'm' over the top and therefore emphasised it. There definitely looks like a smudge or something underneath the 'm'.
You have the privilege to not consider why a lot of non European people are mixed, as there was very little consent involved. Add that it was acceptable by most standards and justice was never pursued, let alone served, and you would have a completely different perspective.
Imagine you are a small child and Liv Tyler is your mother. You Never would be Scared or Afraid and always well mannered. With her soft, gentle and soothing voice.😌Imagine her singing a lullaby to her children.😴 (Both her dads KNOW music)🎼
Pretty cool that she went through all the time and energy to find out about relatives. I've never found that much information on my family. I don't think there is really a whole lot of glory back in those days.
FIX THIS TITLE! Liv Tyler found an African American ANCESTOR! NOT a DESCENDANT. "Descendant" and "ancestor" mean DIFFERENT THINGS.

Indentured servitude is such an interesting concept. I learned that my German ancestor who first came to America in the early 1700s was brought over by a wealthy Dutch man. He spent a decade essentially serving the man in various capacities, and upon earning his release headed out west and became a cowboy for some years to make his money before returning and settling in West Virginia where the family remained for several generations.

Indentured servitude meant that someone paid off a loan by working for someone until that debt was paid off. That's not the case here, since we're talking about a boy.
My thoughts exactly!
Not as a servant during the war but during his childhood in general, probably wanted to keep a watchful eye on him.
Ive always thought she was one of the most gorgeous women alive. SOOO beautiful. Inside and out.
Peace and love to you always ❤❤
He probably hadn’t started showing his mixed fully at a younger age and they became more pronounced during the next census
Is Solange knowles mixed?

@@PHlophe You said that Solange isn't a mixed Woman?

Regardless of descendants or ancestors the truth here is that we’r all the same regardless of colour of skin
In America you mean.
@@ataurusqueenofzion916Meaning we are all human beings. Be Well. 💜💜💜
Get rid of this nonsensical trope. We are definitely not all the same.
No we are not
@@billieboybuddha4238 Are you not a human being?
Where’s Henry Louis Gates?
I know right, his story telling make these so much fuller. Finding your roots is so much better at this. Be Well. 💜💜💜
Different show 😂
They copied Henry Louis Gates show. The usual.
Steve tyler needs to go on Louis Gates show.

So I am an Elliott in England. I traced fam back to northumberland in uk - it was recorded as Elliot. I believe it goes back into Scotland but I couldn’t trace it on the Elliot line. I did trace my female line back to a marriage in Edinburgh in seventeenth century. But yes, you probably;y have Scottish roots
Peace and love to you always ❤❤❤
I disagree with the comment by the historian about the "m" for mulato being emphasised. If you look avoe Robert's name there is another person noted as 'm' for mulato. Perhaps the recorded originally wrote 'w' as a mistake and wrote the 'm' over the top and therefore emphasised it. There definitely looks like a smudge or something underneath the 'm'.
Absolutely
He was adding some drAAAHma to the video.
We can see from this a lot about her ancestory at any given moment
That's truly amazing, one wonders how she had a descendant without knowing about it.
lol
You mean an ANCESTOR. She, Liv, is the descendant.
yessss. one for the home team 😊
Everyone is mixed with just about everything!! It’s beautiful!!
You have the privilege to not consider why a lot of non European people are mixed, as there was very little consent involved.
Add that it was acceptable by most standards and justice was never pursued, let alone served, and you would have a completely different perspective.
We knew you needed to go back to the drum kit Steven🙌
Makes sense....dad can sing 😂
I’m Italian but with mixed European and a small South Indian percentage, which is so cool!
Is this why her daddy can holler like a gospel singer? 😂😂😂😂😂
I come from a long line of Elliotts near Philadelphia. We had a few George’s too.
Everyone already knew her dad had some brotha in him 😂I could’ve told her that in 5 seconds
You knew that he had some brother in him? Who?
@@maryjs4878 Steven Tyler
@@kelsilulu lol, Steven Tyler doesn't have some brother in him.
@@maryjs4878 did you watch the video?
@@maryjs4878 That's why he screams so loud I guess :p
Such a great story
Imagine you are a small child and Liv Tyler is your mother. You Never would be Scared or Afraid and always well mannered.
With her soft, gentle and soothing voice.😌Imagine her singing a lullaby to her children.😴 (Both her dads KNOW music)🎼
Imagine your grandfather screaming a lullaby to you :D
So cool
One would assume she has an African-American ancestor, since I assume she already knows all her descendants.
A lot of assuming there.
Descendants? They would be her children, grandchildren, etc.
I think you mean her ancestors.
@@stephanieyee9784 That was the point being made. She would already know her descendants, i.e. her children.
Yup, definitely ancestor(s) meant.
I can’t really understand why people constantly get this wrong - especially a channel dedicated to ancestry🤣🤣
Well theres reason to do the census, it helps your descendants find you.
They literally cut off the video when she started talking about the guy possibly being a slave... smh
Pretty cool that she went through all the time and energy to find out about relatives. I've never found that much information on my family. I don't think there is really a whole lot of glory back in those days.
They don't do the research themselves. It's done by the programme makers paying professionals to do it.
Her voice reminds me of LOTR.
Also she’s already related to the coolest dude on earth. What else is there to know 😂
She played the Elf maiden Arwen Undómiel in LOTR.
Liv still beautiful and humble. ❤❤❤
The title of this video tells me the American education system leaves a lot to be desired. 😆
Wow what a shocker!
