This was very well put together and obviously researched extensively. I have become a fan of your blog and look forwaed to the next historical journey.
Thank you for this video because it gave me a lot of information on my name and where I came from because I am a possible descendent of the Randolph slaves and I’ve been doing research on it for a very long time now and this video gave me a lot of insight on the area of where to look so thank you so much if this channel is still active
This day has brought much tears and emotions to me ….I say that because I am a descendant of Sampson Randolph, he was emancipated at the age of 65 years old along with the other Randolph slaves 🥹 to FINALLY find solid information on my ancestors has me very emotional for my family and I…..much much gratitude!!!!!
Wow!. I'm a African American from Clark Co, Ohio with strong ties to Charles Co, Maryland, Rockingham Co, VA, Madison Co, Ky, and Southern Ohio. Researching my ancestry, I have discovered that I have a strong DNA connection to the Randolph's of Roanoke, Virginia. Although we are African American and are descendants of Free People of Color, I'm not too sure who exactly am I connected too only because my ancestry is quite complicated with large amounts of European DNA. Unfortunately, I have about 40% European DNA so it hard to figure out. I also know for sure I'm a DNA relative to Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings, etc as well. Nonetheless this was a excellent video and thanks for creating it.
None of these people were “African American” these are the indigenous peoples of the land. What you would call “Indian”. Also, we weren’t born slaves. False information in this video

Very welcome Alan. Hope you are able to learn more about your ancestry. Thanks for sharing!
Mine goes right back to Buckingham. Seems a Randolph was Queen Elizabeth 1 ambassador,
@@maryrandolph7751 Nice! I'll check to see if any of my ancestry also links to Buckingham I'm pretty sure it does.
@@alantaylor9593 make us cousins?
@@maryrandolph7751 yes Mary we are cousins! It's good to meet you.
Helen Gilmore is my Aunt,,Thank-you Auntie for your research from the Wells/Kelly side
Thanks for sharing. That cemetary was the most peaceful place I believe I have ever been to.
I understand this is Randolph is related to Winston Churchill through his mother who is a Randolph.
Interesting
