Another interesting aspect is the DNA test that I took in 2003, and the
surprising results.

So what did it show?  You are tantalizing us with suspense ;-)!!!  I would
also like to know how much it  cost and did it include the info from the African
and Human Genome Project?

GGgranddaughter of Robert Eggleston (1822-1910) born in Amelia County, Va the
mulatto son of his owner William Eggleston (1794-1849) who escaped from
slavery in MS and was a Texas cowboy on the Chisholm Trail and a farmer in Seguin
County, TX.  He and his family migrated to OK and took part in the OK land rush
in the panhandle, ultimately settling in Chickasha in 1893. His paternal
grandfather was Major Joseph Eggleston (1754-1811), second in command of the VA
militia under Lighthorse Harry Lee during the revolution.  I am currently
working on the family geneaology with a couple of white cousins who are descended
from William Eggleston, Jr. (1843-1909)  Robert's half brother.  They are first
cousins, third removed to me.
