Jewish
The people mentioned on this website are Jewish. That is not a commentary on their actual religious participation. It is a statement about their DNA. Most of these Jewish people had two Jewish parents. Some had only one Jewish parent.
A classic illustration of this characteristic is Elvis Pressley. He was a Christian all his life; but his mother was Jewish.
Some of the people mentioned in the texts have a (g) next to their name. That means that the person had no Jewish DNA.
