1619 Project aka 20 and Odd Lineage in Jamestown Line and also specific native lines are Shikori native https://www.ncpedia.org/shakori-indians to Paspagegh native. Prior to 2016, the Lumbee site in the media section had this line as core. The descendants of this line are self terming Old Cheraw continuous to this day, in certain lines specific to Sgt. Glover, Lt Regan , and Cumbo descendants joined Cherokee at the level of Sarah Cumbo Sutton, these familes are found on Census together and were of the Guilford Censused Community, their descendants continuing to marry native and removed to Indian Territory. Gideon Cumbo’s path from Virginia to North Carolina can be traced primarily through court records. Between 1750-1756 dozens of lawsuits were filed against him in Brunswick VA for unpaid debts. Next we observe in 1758 that he is sued for debt in Cumberland County, North Carolina which borders Robeson.

Bogue Chitto Cousin Study 2016 run by Tushanna Corkern and Rachelle Roby Results of atdna Commuity Study of 100 plus cousins in the community of the census where William Glover is listed near Cannon Cumbo on the censes, bottom line findings: Cheraw, MS are kin in a signature SNP on the 16th chromosome in a very large SNP that runs half of the 16th chromosome segment due to cousinship of and to Glovers, Moores, Oxendine, Bloom, Osborne/Lowry Circles of the Lumbee,,and Saponi. Cheraw MS cousins who share Moore/Morris, Glover,,Oxendine, and Lowry ancestry triangulate with Lumbee and Saponi cousins (in same chromosome and segment matches). Cheraw SC and Cheraw MS cousin triangulations lead to Moore/Morris via Glover; to Osborne via Oxendine/Lowry from Mrs Frank McClendon, and Cumbo Circle closest to Isom Cumbo as those particular cousins had already worked out their cM amounts in community studies of Anderson Co, NC cousins and Saponi cousins in terms of 5th and less cousin distance. By the 2018 time frame, a signature SNP became very clear with hundreds more adding their test information into the mix.

I have only seen Christian listed as Christine on other forums. They were two different people. Christian (male) and Christine (female). According to the census, birth records, and marriage licenses:
Stephen Cumbo (1799- ), son of Cannon Cumbo, married Sarah Broom and they had a *son* named Christian Cumbo. Christian had a son named Joseph H Cumbo, who had a son named Harry Cumbo who was my maternal grandfather.
