If the family insists that she is Native American there could be a lot of truth to it.However,a lot of people need to realize that census takers in the country about that time might have put down "white" even when the wife was native American.That bought the family credibility...Indians just were not accepted for their heritage as they are today and a N. A. woman would want her children to have it easier on them by not claiming their Native American Heritage.That is about all I can help on. Michelle Abbe
