Gypsies were (are) very real.
A case-in-point: along with Jews, the gypsies were also part of the Holocaust.
The evils of nazi Germany tried to kill ANYONE considered inferior.
The true gypsies - Roma - are a unique people.
Read the link and learn.

The Roma people often referred to as gypsies, are a heterogeneous ethnic group who live primarily in Southern and Eastern Europe, Western Asia, Latin America, the southern part of the United States and the Middle East. They are believed to have originated mostly from the Rajasthan region of India. They began their migration to Europe and North Africa via the Iranian plateau about 1,000 years ago.
Traditionally most Roma spoke Romani (Romany), an Indo-Aryan language. Today, however, most Roma speak the dominant language of their region of residence

In Hungary and other parts of Europe there are still many gypsies. Up until my grandfather married my grandmother, my entire father's side of the family was gypsy. Gypsies are famous for many things, their nomad lifestyle, connection to the natural world, psychic abilities, and fantastic talents in music, entertainment, horse training and trick riding, as well as more negative things such as thievery. They are a beautiful people with a rich heritage, who have been persecuted for century's.

First of all, what do you mean by "gypsies" and in what country are you talking about. There are still gypsies in many part of the world.
Here in the U.S. true gypsies are few and far in-between.
They are real.

The gypsies or Roma are real. They have suffered centuries of persecution, and are still subjected to huge discrimination in many places.

summarize what each of your sources says. type in "gypsies" in google and read read read. there is a great deal of information available, including how they supposedly originated.
Your job in writing is to come to your own understanding, rather than have someone on a message board tell you what they know.

This is a pretty good source of general info. Make sure to hit your local library and get plenty of sources though. It's more impressive to a teacher if you prove to be well read on a subject.
