With all due respect it is hard to establish native american ancesrty due to loop holes. The best thing to do is to look up actual documentation. Otherwise, forget it. The search must be started by a family member "knowing the fact" of indian ancestry
and which tribe. then you can start to delve into blood. Lot #'s or land grants posted to a family also help. Unfortunately, in Texas your either White or Black at birth. There is Native Blood in Texas but it is hard to establish. We are labelled Mexican.Good Luck.
