Can I tell you how excited we are to include Huntsville on the Road Tour? One of our African Ancestry Family Members, Terrance Vickerstaff, has rolled out the red carpet! Thanks to Mr. Vickerstaff, the Alabama State Black Archives Research Center and Museum on the campus of Alabama A&M University is our partner. During the celebration of our historical, cultural, and genetic connections to Africa, we are honored to reveal the ancestries of three leaders in the Huntsville community. We look forward to meeting you there!
