P.S. If you are also a Native American with Rh Negative blood, hit me up. We may be a dying breed. Now, I'm not saying I'm DTF. Unless you're sexy young lady. I'm 22 by the way. *cough cough*.

In researching the origins of my last name, I stumbled on the story of Madoc, Prince of Wales who some say discovered America 300 years before Columbus and that the people he brought with him from Wales interbred with the Native Americans. Hence the "Welsh Indians" noted in the Wikipedia page about Madoc:
en.wikipedia.org...
The Welsh of his time are said to be related to the ancient Basques, who have the highest concentration of o negative blood in the world and also the highest incidence of rh negative blood.
"Basques have the highest concentration of type O in the world-more than 50 percent of the population-with an even higher percentage in remote areas where the language is best preserved, such as Soule." "Basques were found to have the highest incidence of Rh negative blood of any people in the world, significantly higher than the rest of Europe, even significantly higher than neighboring regions of France and Spain."

n 2001, scientists at the University of London, led by Professor David Goldstein, discovered that Welsh and Irish Celts were the "genetic blood-brothers of Basques".

Thought this might help you in your research! I don't remember reading anything specifically about the blood type of the "Welsh Indians" but it's plausible that if the story of Madoc is actually true, he could have passed the o negative blood type from his region/ancestors on to the Indians in North America.
This is my theory also...they were here before Columbus. The Lost colony DNA group didn't match for "Croaton" people. Rh negative blood 0- is in the present day tuscarora,coharie, Lumber and Pee Dee and Waccamaw Indian people in N.C and S.C. I have cherokee ,chickisaw,Coharie,Waccamaw,Tuscarora and Nansemond blood from my fathers side of the family and my mothers side were some of the first English,scotch Irish and German settlers in the area surrounding Pee Dee , Waccamaw and Black River in S.C....I did my family tree ....I have documented nine generations .We must be kin...where were you born?
