3. The Book of Enoch and Apocrypha in General.
Query from Jacob Wright:
IS THE BOOK OF ENOCH TRUE OR FALSE ??
===============================
Brit-Am Answer:
 I have not read the work. Nevertheless, I do not think the Book of Enoch can be true since it belongs to the Apocrypha. At all events, unless it speaks of the Ten Tribes,
discussion of the matter for us is superfluous. We try to avoid religious discussions not connected with identifying the Lost Ten Tribes. We did find indications that in Late Jewish Literature related to Apocrypha and the Dead Sea Scrolls they had the notion that the Ten Tribes were in the West and in the Isles of Britain.

We also used the Book of Tobias to confirm the location of the Naphtalites to the southwest of the Caspian Sea in the Cadussi area at an early date.
See:
Book of Tobias (Tuvia, Tobit)

So too, the Testament of the Twelve Patriarchs has a few points of interest on Tribal characteristics despite its source being doubtful.
See:

In general the Apocrypha derive from Second Temple Times. They are works usually claiming to be inspired but not recognized by the Sages. Those copies known to us have come down only in Greek translation. Catholic translations of the Bible traditionally include Apocryphical works. Protestant ones do not.
Recently similar sources have come to light such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, etc.
In principle we are interested in anything that may shed light on the Lost Ten Tribes. Otherwise it does not concern us.
Even though we are prepared to look at nearly anything whatsoever concerning the Lost Ten Tribes the Hebrew Bible has priority.
We have not yet gone through all the books of the Hebrew Bible as we should have done. Those works that we have looked at should be re-examined in greater depth.
This is where our priorities are to be placed.
