Jews track jewishness matrilineally. I don’t. I rely on DNA.
That's not the point. The progeny of a jewish woman and a gentile man will be considered jews and quite likely raised as jews. That's why there's so many R1b jewish men.
~10% is quite a lot imo. Also I don't think it makes sense to assume it'd be equally distributed given that specific sections of jewish society will be more open to intermarriage than others. For merchants such as slave traders making politically advantageous marriages with impoverished aristocrats makes a lot of sense. "Re-d'orer son blazon" was a thing.
Anyhow, it's possible white settlers were personally seeding their agricultural equipment, but judging by what I see nowadays it's almost always jewish. Any time I see a half caste acting up it turns out the "white" half is jewish.
I also remember having to read maya angelou in school and being surprised when she mentioned her white grandmother. She talked about her cooking german food but also that they were heavily involved in the black criminal underworld. At the time I was very confused and couldn't understand how Germans would get involved in something like that, ~20 years later it makes perfect sense.
