I don't want to step on any toes or upset any Crockett or Boone familys so before fussing at me, check the Native American culture and Indian traders in early America. Most Frontiersmen or "trail blazers" such as Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone had Native American [NA] wives besides their white wives back home. That is how most of us have some NA blood. The Native American culture would let a white man live and trade with them if they were "married" to one of their women. They then would be protected from the other Indians and could travel and trade among their lands. David S. Payne in Anderson, SC.
