Hi,

I ran across this group on a archived post about the people of Ocracoke Island, and Lumbee. I wanted to ask if anyones has ever heard of the "Doegs"? Reverand Morgan Jones, a missionary in the mid 1600's, was captured by a Tuscarora band of Indians that understood the Welsh language, and because Mr. Jone's native language was welsh, he was freed, and stayed with them for several months. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Also, pertaining to the gaelic sounds spoken by the Natives here, there are many books on the subject.

Thanks,
Chris

Interesting information on these links. Especially interesting is the last one as it appears to be taken from a contemporary account of Bacon's Rebellion.
