This area is a work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support!
The Cave of Clues is a collection of archives allowing information in the project database to be filtered and explored in various ways. This feature is currently experimental, and you’ll continue to see it expand and evolve over the next few months. My original plan was to try to get this area into a more finished and presentable status before taking it live, but I hope making it available in its current state will encourage member feedback and ideas, which I very much appreciate. Please do not hesitate to share your input so I know which direction to take things in next! If something isn’t possible, I’ll tell you that, and if it is, I’ll try my best to make it happen (if it aligns with our mission, of course). I see this as a project we can co-create, so feedback is an integral part of the process.
I’m using Pods framework to create and connect content across the site and will refer to each of the below sections as “pods” for that reason. All the pods (ancestors, surnames, peoples, places, resources, etc.) are interconnected through relationships. The Cave of Clues was designed to highlight these connections and once filled in more, should allow us to thoroughly explore each aspect of our Melungeon heritage. The idea is to be able to query and use this data for storytelling, or “fillling in the dashes” of our ancestor’s lives. Right now, the main goal of this area is to gather and organize any valuable bits of information that could be useful in our research journey. For anyone interested in helping with this process, you’ll soon be able to submit data to be added to the site right from your new Member Portal! *
Members can click [ Explore > ] buttons to learn more about each pod and/or to filter relevant data within it. Click any of the results to visit its page, and be sure to favorite any page you’d like to see worked. I’ll be checking those once a week and will do my best to get you the info you’re looking for! Individual result pages have a [ Discuss in forum ] button, which Hill Folk + members can use to start or continue a conversation around a specific topic.

GIVEN NAMES
G I V E N _ N A M E S

Many Melungeon first names were the same as those of other families in the region. There are a few that seem unique to the area, however, such as Valentine, Vardeman, Mahala, and Ambrose. Also common were:
- Hebrew names (e.g. Elijah, Solomon, Shadrach, Hezekiah, Abraham, Levi, Gabriel, Zachariah, Mary, Naomi, Elizabeth, Judith) – There is a strong connection between Melungeons and Sephardic Jews!
- virtue names (e.g. Obedience, Comfort, Charity, Patience)
- names starting with “L” (e.g. Ludicia, Lucinda, Lavinia, Letha, Louisa, Lula, Lorenzo, Leroy, Louemma)

Melungeons as a group did not have their own language. They spoke English. While some Melungeon communities claimed Portuguese ancestry, there is no recorded evidence of them speaking Portuguese. Historical accounts describe their language as broken English, Elizabethan English, and various Native American dialects.
This pod will be used to collect additional historical information on Melungeon language use and dialect. It will also gather and share details for projects and causes aimed at preserving language within related tribal communities today.
