In Spain and Portugal exhibiting the same haplotype



as our Scots-Melungeon Alexander. If Alexanders

were Gaelic or Celtic, these Spanish and Portuguese

cousins would be hard to account for. In historical

times, Scotland did not send any colonists to the

Iberian peninsula. However, as we will demonstrate,

Iberia did send colonists, in several stages, to Scot-

land.

. As of this writing, there were nine donors

and only two participants matched each other exactly.

 

9. A search for the “extended” haplotype, adding

markers DYS438 and DYS439, yielded one match in

Northern Portugal, seeming to indicate that this was

the homeland of Forbes I. It should be pointed out,

however, that currently only about 22 percent of all

YHRD samples are extended by these two loci, so

any results are likely to be incomplete.

 

10. A tradition apparently as old as the Eliza-

bethan privateer Martin Frobisher and continued by

America’s entrepreneurial publisher Malcolm S.

Forbes, Sr. (died 1990). The most recent study of Fro-

bisher notes that the trail of his genealogy leads to

John Frobisher, a Scot born circa 1260 who served

under Edward I, in other words, during the genera-

tion that saw many English Jews go underground

(McDermott 2001, p. 8). Frobisher’s career on the

high seas blossomed with the influence of Raleigh,

Grenville, merchant-banker Michael Lok, and oth-

ers of the same background whose true colors can be

seen, we suggest, in the names of their ships, some-

times obviously (French) Jewish: Ark Royale, Denys,

Emanuel of Bridgewater, Emanuel of Exeter,

Gabriel, Isaac, Judith, Michael, Salomon, Sampson,

Samson, and Argo (pp. 505-7). Given that Forbush

was a common form of the name in Scotland, it is

an easy step to Forbusher (1578) and then Frobisher.

Significantly, Frobisher is said to have had “contacts

in Germany (probably Hamburg), Ireland and Scot-

land” (p. Ill), to have derived knowledge of the sail-

ing directions and the shoreline of North America

from a map associated with the Sinclair family and

the Orkneys, and even to have had a German

prospector with a Jewish name on board for his 1577

voyage of discovery to the land of the Inuits (p. 175).

A contemporary portrait of Frobisher shows him to

have a dark complexion, bony frame, and green eyes.

 

Robert (Bertie) Charles Forbes was a journalist and

financier who lived from 1880 to 1954. Forbes was

born in New Deer (Aberdeenshire) and emigrated to

the U.S. in 1906, settling in New York, and founding

the business review Forbes magazine in 1917.

 

11. The following Forbes family trees have been

published on the Internet at Stirnet Genealogy

(< http: //www.stirnet.com/HTML/genie/british/ff/

bindff.htm> ): Forbes of Forbes, Forbes of Pitsligo,

Forbes of Rires, Forbes ofTolquhorn, Forbes-Leith

of Whitehaugh, Forbes of Corse, Forbes of Craigie-

var, Forbes of Granard, Forbes-Mitchell of Thain-

stone, Forbes of Corsindae, Forbes of Monymusk,

Forbes of Culloden, Forbes of Pittencrieff, Forbes of

Brux, and Forbes of Echt.

 

12. A second Bruce differed in several loci, indi-

cating probably a separate branch of the family, but

did not sign a release form. His DNA produced no

matches in the YHRD.

 

13. The name Muse, spelled in early English doc-

uments Meus, is a Hebrew given name, equivalent

to Meir. For instance, Jacob, “the Rothschild of

English Jewry” and wealthiest man in Norman Can-

terbury, had sons named Samuel and Aaron, a son-

in-law Meus (Meir), and Simon, a nephew (Adler

1939, p. 59). The name was also rendered as Miles

and Milo (p. 135, n. 4). Musa, notably, also is Ara-

bic for Moses.

Florida, whose family (Henriques and Franks) were

early Jewish Jamaican merchants.

 

16. One of the Campbells in our family was

Salathiel Campbell, a wealthy medical doctor who

was born in Tennessee and lived in Arkansas

(1810-1903). Salathiel (“God is asked”) is a name that

is exclusively Jewish; it is a variant of Shealtiel, the

son of Zerubbabel. His Campbells are traced to

Robert Campbell, born 1700 in Edinburgh.

19. Byron created a sensation with the publica-

tion in 1815 of “Hebrew Melodies, ” poems which

were set to traditional Hebrew music by I. Nathan.

His mother was Catherine Gordon of Gight, and his

uncle and predecessor in the baronetcy was Lord

George Gordon (1751-1793), who publicly “con-

verted” (more likely returned) to Judaism in 1787

and wrote tracts against Jewish assimilation into

English society (Endelman 1979, p. 122).

 

20. On Benedict Arnold and his relations with the

Jewish Franks family, see Lebeson (1950), pp. 134,

137. Abraham Arnold was a Jewish member of the

Republican Committee under Abraham Lincoln (p.

287).

 

2 1. “The whole business of ‘Jewish’ names is quite

confusing. There was a definite tendency on the part

of the immigrant Jews in those days to drop their

Spanish and their German Jewish names as they

passed through England, and to appropriate English

names. Thus it is that we find them in the seven-

teenth and eighteenth centuries with such names as

Phillips, Brown, Rice, Hays, Henry, Laney, Simson,

Jones, and the like” (Marcus 1973, vol. II, p. 249).

“Saul Pardo (‘brown’) blossomed forth as Saul

Brown” (vol. I, p. 35).
