This subject has come up several times before and it really comes down to those who want to believe, for some reason, that they have Indian blood in them. The man from Connecticut was just trying to get some federal funding back in the 30's. It seems highly unlikely that a man in the early days of a Puritan colony would have taken an Indian as a wife. Also, even more unlikely, a Gypsy man would have been allowed to settle in a Puritan colony. That's my opinion.
