Most of our ancestors came here after the whole assimilate the Indians idea was replaced by removal and extermination. So I'd say the likelihood of ol Grandpappy getting it on with a squaw is minimal. They always claim that they are part Cherokee. Is it because that's the only nation they have heard of? How come I never meet a guy that is half Nez Perce? No Comanches. No Delaware. No Crow. Me personally, I'd dream up a Lakota ancestor. I just find that to be a comical element of American culture.
You called ?
1/8th Cherokee.... not much really and it doesn't qualify for shit.
If I were 1/8th black, that'd be different.
One of my best friends is half Seminole, half Blackfoot.
I will admit, the most Native culture I've experienced is from hanging with some Navajos in NM.
*edit* I forgot.... I have went through a blood-brother ritual. (not that you'd believe that, either)
Soooo..... what point would you like to discuss that is relative to this matter ?
