Wish I’d have known about this show. I have ancestors rom the Nashville area and I’m totally stuck. Can’t go further back than 1865 when he died.

[@kathrynwitte3398]

Congratulations?

[@yeahnoonecaresifyouarefirst]

That's amazing! You're so lucky I wish I could've done this! ❤

[@jerrilynhenson9024]

Cool.

[@emilyflotilla931]

I loved the attitude of Margerita! "Tell the secret, but gently." What a wild story.

[@mimsicle1]

Buried treasures. In the end it’s the photos that are invaluable.

[@melodymccullough5262]

I love history ! ♥️ As a southerner, we clap when we're happy, or we might slap our knee.

[@teelora1322]

This is a really good show and I'm proud that they have a show like this and I'm glad that people and more people want to know who they are both white and blacks

[@joyce7892]

I wish they'd keep this show going

[@kathrynwitte3398]

It takes a lot of work to do the research and get the copyright permissions for every photo, etc., BC/MC/DC take time and money also if they’re not publicly available.

The first guy had an eighth grade education. No way that would indicate that he was illiterate.

[@patriciajrs46]

What does lifestyle food and travel have to do with genealogy? I love this show. I wish they hadn't cancelled it.

[@johnwest9577]

Such an interesting show!

[@karrifohey7848]

Why would one with an 8th grade education be deemed "illiterate"?

[@AutonyB]

ms page story is OMG!!!

[@adakeith8105]

How do I get my genealogy results? My 2 great grandfather was a bad man. He famous for terrified Wayne County, Ky in the late 1800.

[@Odo55]

DNA test would help and lots of investigating of census records, birth certificates, death certificates, etc.

[@sandybruce9092]

@@Odo55Yes! Do the DNA and while waiting for the results start working on your family genealogy. Start with everything you know - there are wonderful forms available free online if you aren’t ready to purchase Ancestry. I’ve been doing family genealogy and still have my hand-written forms before I invested in Ancestry. I think Roots Web is free - not sure! Family Search is also still free - just keep in mind what you think is the truth many times turns out not to be true- just family stories passed down incorrectly. Example - I was told my maternal family was Dutch - nope - we are German - came from our family living in York and Lancaster, PA - Pennsylvania Dutch area but is completely wrong!

They could've got the Gov's age incorrect as well. He may have been older. Or for that matter, Mary's age may have been wrong. 14/28 is quite a gap. Not saying it was impossible.

[@TaWandaJoyner]

I came to Montgomery County, TN in 1990 to go to college at APSU (Austin Peay State University). I graduated with both my Bachelors and Masters, and I still reside in Clarksville, TN (Montgomery County). During my first year of school in a history class and in my African American Experience class we discussed that former TN Gov Austin Peay had fathered a child with one of the housekeepers. The age was said to be the same as they reported on this show as well and we debated the "age thing" as well, yet it's plausible. So, I didn't know that it was still a secret.🤷🏾‍♀️ I'm glad Marguerite got the answers she needed.🙌🎊✨️🙏💐🦋 #GenealogyTruths

[@sandybruce9092]

@@TaWandaJoynerA 14 year old guy could very well have fathered a child - it’s not that rare. The program did scoot around some things though.

[@resilience4lyfe331]

It would have been nice to acknowledge that Belmont was not a beautiful creation developed by a 22 year old whom married a 50 year old slave trading man, rather, all the beauty was bought by the blood, sweat and tears of enslaved people who labored for and because of these people. That woman never worked in her life. Her husband owned the largest slave trading company in the USA and many, many slaves, some of whom he fathered himself and still sold. Then he & his cronies wrote jokes about raping the enslaved women and selling the children. “Genteel Southern”?? No small karma: all four of their children died in their childhood. What a horrible legacy. Mention ALL the history PBS, how the money was amassed. Fun fact all his plantations weren’t even in TN alone. For example: present day Angola State penitentiary (largest maximum security prison in the US today) is a state purchase from these people. How’d she die? Shopping in NYC aged 70. Shopping 🛍️..….

You can tell margarita has mixture in her family by just looking at her

Guy looks as though he has African origin you can tell that he is mixed by his skin color and hair texture sometimes people are passing but there's always features and phenotypes that stand out because we blacks or African Americans have very strong genes when we mix appropriate with any other race you can tell that person has African origin because our genes are over dominant and they're very dominant over other genes and that's a fact

[@sandybruce9092]

If a person is from a Southern family living in the South for generation, it is quite possible to have African American DNA - I think this bothers many people on both color sides for some reason. I dint understand why!

[@adamodeo9320]

better yet - infamous?

[@teelora1322]

And they look just alike the uncle in the black guy look just alike you can see the resemblance and back then you know if you were a Trigon which was three-quarters white 1/4 black you still were not considered white you were considered black so you know a lot of these babies that were born during that era to mulatto women and white Masters were looking almost white with black phenotypes or at age a African-American phenotypes but the color of their skin was that of a paler white and when the Aboriginal seen this they made it a note to abolish slavery because there was so many white children and the slave fields and there was so many white slaves they couldn't differentiate the whites from any other white but considering at that time they were they were black because of the one-drop rule you had to be 8/4 white 1/4 black to be considered white in the south

[@Katc78]

That Emmet Miller is like a used car salesman, he needs to tone it down. This is genealogy, not the Price is Right! 😂

Why do americans strive to be famous.

[@Odo55]

So what did the Hawaii surfer girl have to do with Nashville ? Just filler I guess.

[@Fern.Randall]

I think she mentioned how she used to live there. Probably moved to Nashville after, perhaps.

[@zagorskaewelina]

It was mentioned that her mom was in Hawaii for vacation when she met her father. So the mom could have been living in Nashville all the way. Sarah herself used to live in Hawaii at some point but it just seems to be a coincidence.
