President Obama's Surprising Ancestral Roots

[dynasaw]

""President Obama is the 11th great-grandson of John Punch, who was the first documented African to be enslaved for life in the American colonies," says Joseph Shumway, a genealogist at Ancestry.com.

. . .the president's white mother is a direct descendant of the first known slave in the American colonies through a family by the name of Bunch.

"We found that, through DNA testing done by members of the Bunch family, that their direct ancestors are of sub-Saharan African origin. ... Eventually, we were able to make a connection with the earliest Bunch family members and a gentleman by the name of John Punch," Shumway notes.

In 1640, John Punch, an African, was a servant in Virginia who escaped, was caught and sentenced to remain in bondage to his master for life."
