New DNA Study Sends Shockwaves Through The Qarsherskiyan Community

New genetic and genealogical research has shown the Ethnic Qarsherskiyan Tribe to be overwhelmingly of African and European ancestry, with Native American genetic ancestry usually occurring in smaller amounts. While historical records show that some of the progenitors of the Qarsherskiyan people were recorded as being Native Americans, the percentage of Native American genetic ancestry has become a smaller portion of the mixed race DNA of many Qarsherskiyans over generations. For a long time, many members the Qarsherskiyan people didn't know their ancestral history. Some who were clearly of mixed race ancestry were called mulatto, a term now rejected as a derogatory slur by many Qarsherskiyans. Others with more darker skin were labeled as being Black or Colored. Lighter Qarsherskiyan people often passed as being White, with many claiming to be part of Chechen and Basque mixed-race lineage, which later turned out to be untrue. The Chechen-Basque Creole identity some proclaimed to have was a myth, shattered when DNA testing revealed they were Qarsherskiyan and had Indigenous American, West African, and Northern and Western European DNA. Some of the Qarsherskiyans also had some ancestors from Angola and Kenya in Southern and East Africa too. Some Qarsherskiyan people had South Asian ancestry and some Qarsherskiyans also had ancestry from immigrants who came to the USA later and married into the Ethnic Qarsherskiyan Tribe. There was some Basque, Chechen, Kartvelian, Dagestani, Circassian, Ingush, Armenian, Turkic, and East Asian ancestors of some Qarsherskiyans, but this was usually in small amounts or the result of recent intermarrying between Qarsherskiyans and immigrants who came to the USA in recent times. 61.5% of the Qarsherskiyans are Muslims and many often prefer to marry other Muslims, and so many Qarsherskiyan people have married immigrants who came to the USA from Muslim countries, as a result. Another 17.7% of the Qarsherskiyan Tribe are Christians, and some Qarsherskiyan families that are mostly Christians have been found to have some Chaldean, Coptic, Assyrian, Maronite, and other Christian ethnoreligious sources being part of their mixed race ancestry, but these are a minority of the Christians among the Qarsherskiyan Tribe, and most Qarsherskiyan Christian families just have a mixture of Sub-Saharan African and Northern and Western European ancestry with some Native American DNA being prevalent in most cases and often some South Asian or Mediterranean countries are a source of some of their ancestry too. Many Qarsherskiyan Jews have higher amounts of Iberian and Semitic ancestry. Jews make up roughly 5.6% of the Ethnic Qarsherskiyan Tribe and often are of Sephardi and Mizrahi descent, although Ashkenazi and other Jewish ethnoreligious groups are not an uncommon source of ancestry for Qarsherskiyan Jews and have also been found as well. The Iberian and Semitic ancestry that makes up some of the mixed-race lineage of many Qarsherskiyans is often theorized to originate from Moorish Muslims and Jews who left Portugal and Spain and came to the Americas to escape religious persecution. Many early explorers of the Appalachian Mountain Range such as Daniel Boone are of Jewish origins and are the ancestors of members of Sweetgum Kriyul tribes including the Melungeons and the Qarsherskiyans.
