      _______________

      Note that the existence of and descendants attributed to Kunta (Toby) Kinte that run through Caswell County and eventually to author Alex Haley are based upon the novel written by Alex Haley, Roots: The Saga of an American Family.

      While Haley claimed as fact the people and relationships set forth in his book, others have criticized his research as faulty. Moreover, he was required to settle plagiarism charges. Accordingly, proceed with caution in using this information, which is placed here for research purposes only. See: Roots; and Roots Revisited.
