Anyone else a Native?

1/4 Seminole here. It is a Florida tribe. The rest is white. I am not ashamed of either, nor do I feel oppressed. You?

Nope. My family is like Elizabeth Warren's family. My son's great grandmother swore up and down that her husband's great grandfather married an Indian Princess. However, I am into genealogy, and I was able to trace all of my son's very ENGLISH ancestors on that side of the family.

@4meAndyou Well the first clue was there was never any such thing as an Indian princess Chiefs were leaders but not royalty....

@indyjoe People of the 2nd ex's grandparents generation were born in about the late 1890's or early 1900's. Back in her time, they were embarrassed by intermarriage, so they tried to make it sound special. And...in this instance, it was a false story that someone made up along the way.
