THE FUGATES Were So Inbred They Turned Blue: Their Inbred Family Tree Explained- Mortal Faces

The Fugates of Kentucky's Inbred Family Tree Explained. I go through their ancestry to see how tangled their family tree was. Also known as the Blue People of Kentucky, the Fugates had a recessive gene that caused their skin to turn blue. They settled in Troublesome Creek, Kentucky in the 1800's and due to the lack of roads, weren't able to meet many new people. As a result they married into only a few families, and even themselves. This resulted in their recessive methemoglobin gene to be passed down and reappear in multiple generations of Fugates, turning their skin blue.
