A focused population profile of Lumbee, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Lumbee is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Lumbee with other modern populations in the database.
The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Lumbee.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Lumbee is Cuban Mulato. Other nearby references include Hassanamisco Nipmuc (European+SSA-Mixed), Cuban Mestizo (Highly SSA-Mixed), Ramapough Lenape (European+SSA-Mixed), and Brazilian Pardo. This gives the Lumbee profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Lumbee average. It should be read as a model of deep ancestry components, while the closest-match table is the better guide to which modern populations are most similar in G25 space.
The heatmap gives the Lumbee profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Lumbee average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Cuban Mulato. Other nearby references include Hassanamisco Nipmuc (European+SSA-Mixed), Cuban Mestizo (Highly SSA-Mixed), Ramapough Lenape (European+SSA-Mixed), and Brazilian Pardo.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Cuban Mulato is the closest listed match to the Lumbee average after removing Lumbee itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Lumbee G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
