Not quite to that extent, but my family from my dad's side are from Hancock Co. TN(Clinch Mtn), which is reeeeeaaaaly isolated, and my ancestors on that side are most likely a mix of 3-4 different races that fled to the mountains to escape various types of persecution/the law, but there isn't any written record any older than my great-grandparents generation so we have no way of knowing for sure. My mom's side of the family are from the mountains of Western NC, and were scotch irish/dirt poor.
So yeah, mountain people.
