it all depends on what you mean by ‘written from scratch’, ‘evolved from’, and how detailed you care to be with the history. I believe you’re either conflating 4.2BSD (1983) and FreeBSD 4.1 (2000) or you’re thinking about userspace stuff that got updated in Mac OS X (around 2000 IIRC). see also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Unix#/media/File:Unix_history-simple.svg and/or http://www.levenez.com/unix/unix_a4.pdf — Daniel J.
