Helo Kevin pleased to meet you and i hope you are well, yes you come up on Ancestry as a distant relative of mine through the dna sequence in the common ancestor range, it must be through your ancestors known as the Scamps for i have several connections to the same people through more Gipsy Family's like the Beaneys and Gardiners who Ancestry puts me as related to them, i also am dna related to a Girl born from a Scamp Mother the Father i think was a Clark, all their related matches that we both share are of the Gipsies. In my research into the Family clusters that have taken the Ancestry dna test i looked through their own unique dna which was tested as individuals, well i find i match through dna to them all, i dna match to several Bucklands and reading of their Family lines, well these Bucklands are all close relatives and i match through my own dna to all of them, this analyse is surely a validation of logical data.
Ancestry send me names of Gipsy's from Europe, several now, they write in their profile how they are Roma Romany and true not a drop of British dna in their body yet i have the full British dna yet me and my Romany Cousins from the Americas and Europe share far of dna, in life you are what is inside you, Ancestry claim me and you are and share fragments of dna from a common Ancestor that is still alive in us in this day when i look into your Ancestor's i find the match through the Scamps linage, i match through dna to Male and Female Lees born in this day from born and bred Lees, the Scamps seem to me to be an old Gipsy Family connected to the Lees they all are more than likely from the same People so in this sense names do not matter so maybe the dna is showing up ancient long lines that in this day names just cloud the arisen, we share in this day about a lock of hair the same as what people used to cut from the dead and save in a golden locket to feel close to their loved ones, now in this day through the science of dna and the fine people that run Ancestry well again this new road is being built that i think in the future will show and ignite a light that will never dim, evan in the doubted mind, maybe there is no one true answer its just our mind as not developed to cope with this sort of intricate information, i am not educated through school to no standard yet i have tryed my best to educate myself in the science of life, i remotely understand the universe as in the periodical table, the Elements and have come to know that maths are the building blocks of everything, all revolves around numbers, you can make anything work if you wish but is it the true reading of numbers, if you die in this life a success and one who champions a said road as in a true pass, for what of such things for if in after your death the road you trod was an uneven road that only pleased those with not the mind to think freely, people it is said are of the animal kingdom and the humans used to be followers like the herds of other beasts, some meat eaters some grass grazers, mostly i think we all come from a tribe like animal that is still there in the inside of us all, then we found fire we found grain we found the wheel, we stopped being hunters on the move and started to form community's over thousands of years we stopped grunting for we needed language to barter with the other settled tribes who also grew crops and kept livestock for food and trade, in the past we just had to be able to kill on the run so maybe a sort of quite singe language was the first language, i do think though from reading others thoughts that they themselves in their mind thoughts reconnect to more the herd followers, now in the flight or fight mindset which i think is hotwired into us all over thousands of yeares of evolution it is said that when we left the trees in our monkey state it was because the forests were diminishing and vast open prairie lands were being formed by the giant ice melts of long ago, that's when our backs started to unstoop and we walked around learning now to run from the beasts that were stronger than us, in the end it is said we became civilised as nations as we had conquered and colonised the world all others were tamed or killed in the wake that followed the wave cast forth adrift the ship, i do not really know anything of the Gipsy's from the South of these English lands yet time and time again now Ancestry send me old Cousin dna matches of names like Cooper Wells Lock Harrison Small Burton and many more that i think come from the South, i do not know of these Peoples yet through me just tyring to think straight it must meen in the far times Gipsy's must have been generally all connected to each other, more than likely all of them stem from just a few Family tribes that contained several Family's then over in Britain to a certain amount they split up and interbred with the locals, then in this time some would be of the North and some of the South i think Ancestry as shown me through my dna that they all are from the ones that were first all together and by me being distantly related to the Roma and Gipsy Peoples of Europe well it proves in my own mind that all Peoples from the Gipsy's are from the same Peoples.
Kevin it would be great if you could write of Flora Scamp
