Why is America so Inbred? (PART 2)

This is the second part in the 'Why is America so Inbred' series.

In the earlier part, we uncovered the factors as to why America contains so many inbred people. In today's video, we will break down the products of these factors: inbred people. As always, make sure to comment down below any suggestions of other people or countries you would like me to feature on this channel.

Your two-part video series on inbreeding in America is interesting. My ancestry goes all the way back to the Mayflower and beyond to England. Three of my 10th great grandfathers were Mayflower passengers (William Bradford, William Brewster, and Richard Warren). In doing my famly research, I have found many instances over the past 400 years of my ancestors marrying cousins to whom they most likely did not know they were related as families migrated from New England to the Midwest. It almost makes me want to stop doing the research. Thank you for the information you share through your videos.

At 5:36 you show pictures of Paul Karason who is not related to the Fugates. His skin turned blue because he consumed colloidal silver his entire life.

Surely Australia is worth a mention, given the Colt family?

[sarahjane]

You should do a deep dive on middle eastern immigrants in America. Generations of first cousin marriages is common.

I have found inbreeding in both sides of my American family. In my mother’s line it goes back to when everyone lived in rural areas in more isolated communities back in the late 1700s when the people were more “fresh off the boat” so to speak.

There are many areas in America which was primarily rural for a LONG time. Which meant less people to choose from.

Kentucky is a hard place to navigate due to mountain terrain. So back in the day it was much more difficult to leave when settled. Especially before cars and other modes of transportation.

I wonder if any study's have deen done on a DNA/ cromazone level of the effects?. Is there much of a diffrence? Or do you end up with just uniform DNA that dise nothing?...curious?

Eleonor and Franklin, while sharing surname, were not that closely related, being fifth cousins twice removed and sides of the family being long split to Hyde Parks and Oyser Bays, both being not inbred

[MrFlazz]

Go to any small isolated community and there's a fair bet that you'll find a lot of cousin marriages, even if the partners might not realize that they're related. My own family on one side lived in one small village for hundreds of years and I wouldn't be surprised if I'm related to most of the people in that village even today.
On a more serious note, what about Iceland? Geographically isolated and hence bound to interbreed, but they don't seem to have suffered from it.

Sir I think you should make videos that would help us with our geography and history IA exams

[fronts]

You could look at some of the Mormon splinter groups who still practice polygamy. Warren Jeffs might be a good place to start.

What about Dagestan?
I follow MMA and all this stuff has pretty much become common knowledge in that community. Just check any comments section

[FrankTropea-uq]

I don't believe Eleanor and Franklin R. were closely related at all
I mean a cousinship beyond the third degree, provided there wasn't close inbreeding done before in the lines that went into Eleanor and Franklin, a third degree cousin ship is generally harmless and none of their children were at all defective.
So, what is the deal? Hell, my own parents are probably a wee bit related as mother had an illegitimate grandfather who should have been a Tropea also, my father's surname.
So what? Except for a tendency for bad nerves and sometimes extreme depression, and some heart disease, there is nothing wrong with in myself and my siblings at all.
And as all mankind descend from one little tribe of mixed Homo Sapiens with some Neanderthal and Dinosevian genes, aren't we all related, probably many, many times over?
I really don't think present-day people should get all hung up on finding that there are related branches in their own family trees.
It is really non big deal at all.

[mikedavis]

So if one of the Fugates had a child with a native American, would it come out purple?

[pangyre]

You mean compared to the capital of hemophilia, Ireland?

Probably because we took too many Irish immigrants. :P

[cywarr]

Maybe the Blue People = the Painted people? Picts?

*** IS THIS FAMILY THE INSPIRATION FOR THE SMURFS???😮😮😮***
