Amazing. It was a pleasure to work with you on this. Just how deeply you dug into my family tree is just simply amazing. And it was even more amazing to see how unique the culture is that I descend from and how connected to Africa my people are. Additionally learning and knowing the details of my history to this extent is something I never thought I'd have the privilege to experience. Thank you so much for this! I will definitely share this with my family members and my community!
This was a great snapshot into the challenges we face when building African-American trees. We can get past that 1870 census, sometimes we just have to perform some fancy cartwheels to get there!
The Gullah Geechee culture is so amazing. In high school in Atlanta, we read “The Water Is Wide” by Pat Conroy. Then we took a weekend field trip to Savannah and took a ferry out to Daufuskie Island before it was ruined…I mean developed. Back then, it was still rustic but you got a chance to see how remote and primitive it was while being so heartwarming and full of life because of the people who lived there. I had BBQ blue crab there for the first time and it remains one of my favorite foods ever since.
Great focus on Liberty County's rich American and African American History. Many stories are yet untold because of the storyteller. I am ecstatic to see a new appreciation for "the rest of the story."
I absolutely love this Donald and Stacy! This is Elizabeth Torres. I'm researching my Dad, the late Rev Henry Smith's family in Liberty County. Keep up the good work. #LibertyCountyProud
As an Albanian Turk , I send all my love and my respect to..our ancient cousins Zulu - Africans. Incredible culture, food , architecture, even a religion miracle!
Can’t believe I came across this video. My great- grandparents were from Liberty County by way of the Georgetown area of South Carolina. I can’t wait to see if I can find more ancestors with the help of this website. Thank you for sharing this gem of historical information.
Wow---thank you for doing this story! I am a descendant of the Puritans who started out in Massachusetts and ended up in Liberty County via Charleston. The Ways, Quartermans and Normans are my ancestors. Liberty County has done a great job of maintaining its records and my mother's legacy was her extremely well researched genealogy of her father's family. At the end of her life, we made one last trip to visit the Midway Church, the cemetery and even spent most of the day with the historian and the historical center in Midway. I'm so thankful that there are tools available to help people with their enslaved ancestors' genealogy. It's such a sad chapter of our history.
Jared, I am so impressed with the depth of work you did for Jabari, and all the priceless and rare information he and his family will forever have! I recently discovered many family secrets from multiple DNA companies (Ancestry, 23&Me, MyHeritage), and have built a large detailed tree. I was shocked to discover that I am 25% Irish, from a grandfather know one ever knew of. I now have a huge tree for this Irish ancestry, back to the early 1600's! But, not for my African ancestry, getting stuck before 1870. It feels so bad to get this shock of my Irish side, but have so much information, including a 1890 newspaper article of a murder suicide (and possible love triangle) where my Irish great grandfather had a child with a black woman, and she was shot to death by another White man who killed himself. I am longing to find the rich history of my black side. For example, my newly found black grandmother's father was the driver for the infamous Bonnie and Clyde, but I can't go back much further to learn more of this man. I don't know my paternal grandmother's lineage at all. And, for generations since my maternal great grandfather's birth, my family has been assuming we are part Jewish, but DNA is suggesting he may have had a different non-Jewish father than his siblings. I'm sitting on this potential huge family secret, but need help figuring it out, so I can share the truth with my family. My head has been spinning. I almost don't know who I am after all of this! Lol. Jared can you help me? I need help!!!!
@@robertwilliams7586 I kind of know how you feel, as I always knew growing up that I had some Irish ancestry, but I only learned of my Black American family members who lived in Ga. about 6 years ago. It didn’t shock or upset me, but tracking down more info about my G GFather-DOB: 1832, GGMother, 1850, has been like pulling teeth.
Try finding records in SC and VA where there were so many “Double Burned” counties. Courthouse burned once by Redcoats and then again by Sherman and his ilk.
I can actually trace my ancestry back to slavery on my maternal side due to slave and estate records found by a distant family member. My mother's family comes from a place called the Coe Ridge or Zeke town and they were the subject of a guy named William Montell's book, "The Saga of the Coe Ridge," on our family as well as the family who owned them. As well, a couple of family members wrote books based on their experiences living on the Coe Ridge and oral history passed down through the generations. I wish I could find out more about my father's side.
Great vid Jarrett! It makes me so excited and happy when people find their lost roots❤ In particular African Americans and indigenous Americans, since most have lost a lot or all of their histories
Great video. I appreciate how much you know about the AA community. My roots are in the Caribbean (Jamaica and Tobago). I wonder if you could share some of your research tips on your Jamaican relatives.
WOW. This is incredible. I'm Black American and I've done a good job in filling out my own tree. But wrt my maternal grandfathers' branch, the furthest that I've gotten is my great grandparents, Henry Sims(my grandfather's also named Henry) and Bertha Shavers who were from South Carolina I do have matches from that line that could potentially give me confirmation back to my 4x great grandparents but I'm not 100% sure. I would love to allow you to see my tree to help me out.
Watch UsefulChart's video on Jabari's DNA results: ua-cam.com/video/-_1tgdRfHXA/v-deo.html Check out Jabari's channel here: www.youtube.com/@FromNothing
Really great vid. So much history! I love how we can learn so much about our ancestors from more than just a tree. The history of the people our ancestors lived among really impacted who they were and how they lived life.
1:27 I wonder how effective those blurred out names are at actually stopping you from figuring out who his parents are, given all the other relatives given on the tree.
This is so awesome! I wish I could find someone to dig into my family history like this. Specifically my 4th great grandfather. He purchased 300 acres of land in Virginia in 1900. My mom and grandma grew up on this land. We know he was freed at the age of 13 but have no info before that. I call him my mystery man lol
Honestly genealogy becomes really hard when you have family members who name their children after other family members, who are literally still alive 😂 There’s so many Bettys, Tinas and Fayes in my family right now
So I’m a huge Afro American history buff and it was very interesting to hear how the Ga slave owners treated the slaves . More knowledge gained thank you for this amazing article. Also congrats to the young man be proud to come from such greatness!
I enjoy your information. I am a 74-year-old African American female. I recently took a DNA test through Ancestry. I have 13 different results. The only surprise was that I was 1% Bengal. I have never seen this result in any video. Looking at the history of Bengal I see that Africans were living there. Have you come across this in any of your findings?
I love this! Several years ago I was able to trace my ancestry on my maternal grandfather’s side back to my 5th great grandfather. He was board around 1815 in VA. This is where I’ve been stuck for the last 10 years. This has inspired me to pick up my research again.
I found something interesting in your video:"Why are all the Presidents related . . . and you are too - Pedigree". At 8:38, the image has 8 of my ancestors: Sir William Gascoigne, Elizabeth Gascoigne, Anne Talboys, Frances Dymoke, Mildred Windebank, George Read, Mildred Read and Elizabeth Warner. (me and how many others?) That was fun. Murray Wagnon 🙂
I have run into this in my own tree. My 4th great great grandfather was a Free Person of Color. They had 16 children, 4 of which were free. Mom was white and they lived in and about Towns Georgia.
I’m having similar issues, as my GGParents were Black Americans living in Ga., who were Freemen in 1865, with only their DOB’s shown, w/ little other info. Have you found anything else that you’ve been looking for?
Can you track the Temne tribe near Seirra Leon to Charleston, S.C.? I am of the Gullah g geechee tribe where I was able to research through Charleston slave history and found this bit of information of that time...the family name is Myers and Cummings...some are also of the Irish decent from a small town called MEATH, the family name is Heary..her name is Catherine O'neill Heary and her father's name is Peter Heary... which I found my great great grandmother...I found them as far back as the mid 1800s and they came in through Lockport New York on the Niagara falls American side...First I want to let you know that I have been viewing your page and have learned a whole lot and love what you are doing...thank you in advance...Happy New Year and happy hunting.
Hello I’m so excited that you mentioned my family connection in your interview. After an Ancestory test I found out I’m related to the Way family. I would love more information. Can you help me?
Brilliant information. Wow, it's great to learn about Liberty County, Georgia. I only went to Savannah once. It will be cool to learn more about Liberty County, Georgia. I didn't know about Puritans coming to South Carolina or Georgia. It's great to learn that some slaves had some independence to do what they wanted in Liberty County--so cool!
You can always look at the APGen directory to see if there is someone available to hire who specializes in your ancestral ethnicity and/or ancestral locations. www.apgen.org/directory
Just reading about one of oldest unsolved disappearances in NYC about socialite Dorothy Harriet Camille Arnold. Wonder if family tree and any descendant/relative DNA testing could crack it.
my last name is Way and my hometown is only 35 minutes from Liberty Co, GA the Way surname is pretty uncommon in our area so I wont be surprised if we're related.
Hi I was able to locate my ancestor listed with his siblings and mother and her mother in probate records in Sumter SC with relationships verified with DNA matches. He was listed as carpenter worth 2000.
Regarding census takers garbling stuff, one of my ancestors was a Belgian immigrant named Valentine who was misrecorded in the Canadian census as Paluntun. The way native Dutch speakers say Valentine kinda rhymes with Paluntun, but it's still a pretty big mistake in my opinion.
Virginia had the slaves listed by the owner's name making it easier to track. My grandfather's family had a huge land grant from King George. Not much left of it now, however lots of names carried down to today with this last name.
Hello,can you explore the relationship of Jewish men and mixed race Black women in Louisiana and the children that they created from such relationships. One such name would have been a Lawrence Sherman of Donaldsonville,Louisiana who was in a relationship with Laura Meade. Lawrence is believed to have arrived from England and spoke Hebrew according to his grandchildren. Lawrence was born in 1864.
Thank you 😊 for your amazing content!!! I’m from New Orleans and have a history that leads to Cherokee descendants as well as France and more!! Please 🙏🏾 help me find this story.. The Mitchell side leads to Kentucky and the Carolina’s. My father passed never knowing much about his father and I would love to know for him!!!
I am looking for a detailed meaning of myself. I am not interested in colonial destinations - just the cultural groups. Thank you for doing the research now. I understand what test - will give me a closer understanding of myself.
You do good work. However, I get rather triggered when it comes to "ethnicity" claims, and I left a few barbed comments over on UsefulCharts' take on Jabari's results. The past is important, and I think people on the whole ought to look more at their own family history. And as you point out, many Americans whose ancestors were slaves have had their past greatly obscured. The best thing we can do as a community is encourage more people to test, more people to attach their DNA test to their known family tree, and to make the known portions public, and help people find matches that can be clues to their shared past.
I was wondering what happened in the 1840s with slave trends? One of our ancestors own 2 or 3 slaves before 1840 but between 1840 and 1860 that ancestor acquired over 10 people. I just don't understand how he could have acquired so many people in such a short period of time.
Nice job!!!Ive been trying to do family tree genealogy on my mother side for over 20 years. But I am unable to go pass 1870. What can I do to go further? I was told by my great Aunt our family had some Irish ancestry. My great grandmother was said to have been mulatto, and I am black. There is a Harris family reunion coming in July 2024. I’d like to get as much information as possible, if anyone can help direct me. So far I have my mother’s grandfathers parents who lived in Virginia ?1870? PLEASE HELP!!!
Hello..researching my family. Found out my great grandma on mothers side was a freed slave and left to live on the feed islands..of S Carolina. coast. Grand dad always joked to my Gma of her Gulla GeeChee culture...some times calling her black foot indian. She was as part Cherokee. I love to research.
Hi I am not sure if you are still accepting DNA results for comparison but I would like to send my mine so that you can help me better understand the two different results (MyHeritage/23&Me) how would I get them to you?
The same stuff about gullah geechee is the same for establishing a black town in Liberty is the same for Beaufort SC and the Port Royal experiment. Still sad. Nobidy shouldve been able to have slaves to build their greed and generational wealth. Anerica will pay at judgement day.
I'm confused .. This is the 3rd or 4th channel I've found using this guy Jabari as some sort of "Blind side" character where the "nice white guy" is "helping" by assisting him trace his ancestry! If this guy paid you to do this & post coo ! if not, Why is this important to you ?
If Staci’s family enslaved Jabari’s ancestors, an apology would have been nice. Moreover, it seemed (with the soft music) a good time was had by all back then when we all know that it was a miserable existence for the enslaved. 😂
[19:44] Slavery is slavery please don't try to glamorized it. People lost their freedom to do as they pleased. If 10 hours of your day or more was spent plowing fields, in most instances you would be to tired to enjoy your evenings. Oh God [23:30], he's sickening to me.
⚠️Hi, this is a great video & research, but may I add a few things there was already black🖤 Negro & Colored North 🇺🇸’s here in America that are (not) Africans or Indians. Some of us maybe mixed with them but we not the same people. Africans are not allowed to own land nor the minerals of the land in 🇺🇸, black North Americans are foreigners in Africa. Some foreigners are allowed to rent land only here in 🇺🇸, but they can own businesses and properties aka houses 🏘️. Gullah people are Africans people from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱. Geechee people are 🇺🇸’s they are two different people. Majority of the Africans slaves was bought to South & Central America. They just started calling us Africans-Americans in 1988 because of Jesses Jackson. P.S. 23andMe give out 2✌️DNA 🧬 TESTS results, Ancestry & Scientific Details 🔬✅ Once again thank you for all your research.
Amazing. It was a pleasure to work with you on this. Just how deeply you dug into my family tree is just simply amazing.

This was a great snapshot into the challenges we face when building African-American trees. We can get past that 1870 census, sometimes we just have to perform some fancy cartwheels to get there!
I am a Way descendant that actually ended up in Western NY! My branch never went south.

Is he related to the Browns and Fagans in Riceboro?

I need help with my family tree. How much will it cost roughly? J
Which is best to trace your family lineage in current country? Iike i wanna know more of my grandparents and if any were american slave
It would tell you if they were Freeman or not

Interesting
🤔
The same stuff about gullah geechee is the same for establishing a black town in Liberty is the same for Beaufort SC and the Port Royal experiment. Still sad. Nobidy shouldve been able to have slaves to build their greed and generational wealth. Anerica will pay at judgement day.
am i the only one finds it a bit rich that it`s called liberty county?
I'm confused .. This is the 3rd or 4th channel I've found using this guy Jabari as some sort of "Blind side" character where the "nice white guy" is "helping" by assisting him trace his ancestry! If this guy paid you to do this & post coo ! if not, Why is this important to you ?
African ancestry, not Slave Masters History. Not impressed 😕
If Staci’s family enslaved Jabari’s ancestors, an apology would have been nice. Moreover, it seemed (with the soft music) a good time was had by all back then when we all know that it was a miserable existence for the enslaved. 😂
[19:44] Slavery is slavery please don't try to glamorized it. People lost their freedom to do as they pleased. If 10 hours of your day or more was spent plowing fields, in most instances you would be to tired to enjoy your evenings. Oh God [23:30], he's sickening to me.
Sorry I just don’t trust it. Glad Jabari found what he needed. Well presented content by the way.

⚠️Hi, this is a great video & research, but may I add a few things there was already black🖤 Negro & Colored North 🇺🇸’s here in America that are (not) Africans or Indians. Some of us maybe mixed with them but we not the same people. Africans are not allowed to own land nor the minerals of the land in 🇺🇸, black North Americans are foreigners in Africa. Some foreigners are allowed to rent land only here in 🇺🇸, but they can own businesses and properties aka houses 🏘️. Gullah people are Africans people from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱. Geechee people are 🇺🇸’s they are two different people.
Majority of the Africans slaves was bought to South & Central America.
They just started calling us Africans-Americans in 1988 because of Jesses Jackson.
P.S. 23andMe give out 2✌️DNA 🧬 TESTS results, Ancestry & Scientific Details 🔬✅
Once again thank you for all your research.
@zaxbiezchickencoop7192 you must be a foreigner🤡
@@shaypink40 I thought Gullah was the people and geechie is the language
Stop saying Sub-Saharian. It's a racist term.
Sub-Saharan means South of the Sahara. It refers to regions of the continent of Africa that lie South of the Sahara. How is it a racist term?
