Me too. Cherokee. My great x4 grandmother was full. How bout you?

hey this might be a good thread on it's own....

That is where I am not exactly clear, my Father's Grandmother was from one of the north eastern tribes. My Great Grandfather and her went west to Washington state, then later came back east during the depression where my Grandmother met my Grandfather in NC. The story was she was so dark, that people often thought she was a light skinned black woman and was the help or something. My Grandfather doesn't know what tribe she was from, apparently that wasn't discussed back then.

Also I probably also have Cherokee, for many generations my Grandmother's people all lived in and around the Cherokee in Qualla NC. My Great Great Great Grandfather was the company commander of Second A company of Love's Battalion of the Thomas' Legion - one of the Cherokee units that fought for the confederacy and was later a Cherokee agent helping them to establish their claim on the land that became Cherokee NC, and my Great Great Great Great Grandfather was one of the local white people that worked to help proxy buy land for the eastern band of the Cherokee.

I think I'll just shut this one down... no need to bring a 7 year old thread back from the dead.
