Age estimates are based on osteological analysis, with age group designations following Buikstra and Ubelaker (1994): infant (0 to 3 y), child (3 to 15 y), adolescent (12 to 20 y), young adult (20 to 35 y), middle adult (35 to 50 y), and older adult (50+ y). Enamel strontium residency status is based on Charleston local vs. nonlocal estimates, with non-local indicating that the individual was not born in Charleston. Ancestry characterization was based on cumulative results from the MSY (male-specific Y chromosome), mitogenome, PCA, ADMIXTURE, and F3 statistical analyses of autosomal data, with W-C Africa indicating West-Central Africa, and W Africa indicating West Africa. If regional ancestry was not consistent among all analyses, then the ancestor was characterized as having sub-Saharan African ancestry. Only ancestors with enough genomic coverage for genomic ancestry analyses are represented in the table.

*Individuals whose genetic sex estimation differed from osteological sex estimation, either due to a different assignment or because osteological sex was not able to be estimated, are noted with an asterisk (*).
