That is true. I never met a black person, or anyone else, with the "Ridenhour" surname.

Chuck D's name is Carlton Ridenhour.

Cozarts are in Mississippi. His people are definitely from there.



Some of the earliest black american families surnames were Chavez. They anglicanized them to Chavis.
So if you see alot of Chavises, they were originally Chavez but it was of Portuguese origin not Spanish.

I know some Chavis’ in Lumberton, NC. They’re Lumbee.

There are aframs (they had no connection to chinese/chinese-jamaicans) with the last name Chin/Chinn

I went to church with a Chin back in Mississippi. I’ve rarely come across a Townsend(my last name). Robert Townsend is my cousin. I gotta do some research, but I’m more than likely related to the tennis player Taylor Townsend. On my mama’s side, they are Gavin’s and Ratcliffs. Through research, I found most Ratcliffs were in East Texas, and a lot of them spelled it Radcliff.
