Roger, I agree with you completely. I too, may be speaking out of turn, but as a legal professional, I do have a very inquiring mind and sometimes it may not be in the right direction, but when we get frustrated searching for our ancestors it helps to have a few monments of pleasure to get your mind off your frustrating efforts that you have come up against. If I get kicked off the list so be it, but I too am of mixed ancestry and am proud of that fact. As a matter of fact, I am 9/16 Native American and of all kinds of other mixes. I do not want anything (monies) from my ancestors, for I have already enough to take care of myself and that effort was made by hard work and not something that was given to me by the Government for being of a certain race. I am just trying to find out about my ancestors and the trials they had to face being in a new country. I hope EVERYONE has a VERY HAPPY HOLIDAY, no matter what their nationality. Nancy
