I have seen a blue eyed Cherokee when I was in college and they told me it happens all the time. I figure there was an Irishman somewhere way back there but anyway, My Mom tried to trace our Indian blood and found a drop through the Englands via the Parks. However the family story says that Lucinda Rice Rogers was Indian and adopted by the Rice family. I have no proof of that either. When they didn't claim their Indian heritage it is hard to use the Guidion Rolls or anything else. My mother's folks died when she was a child but she remembers her Dad and his brother talking about applying for the Indian roll and then deciding not to do it. It carried to much stigma for them to try is what I was told. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
