Si-yu ( hello ) Doris! I'll tell you this about Natives... We didnt and sometimes still dont like paper to much LOL So trying to track American Indian Ancestory can be a real Challenge. I was lucky enough to be raised with the Oral history ( well most of it ) I tell you I try to help people all the time looking for thier people and it can be ruff. I also have a great grandmother who had my name LOL I think that it's a good name- It means Gazelle. It is in the bible- for a little girl that Peter, I believe, raised from the Dead.( Acts 9 or 10) :)And it has proven true in more ways than one LOL This internat can be a very handy thing in genealogy. I myself have found some long lost cousins on here and other family :) But alot of Native sites and others can be VERY misleading. So just be careful. It has been proven that since " Dances with wolves " came out more people have suddenly decided to claim ancestry. When you do it for monetary reasons and such it is a real sad deal. But every Race, creed and color has the same problems. I am all for everyone knowing where they came from and who they are, so please dont take me wrong here. I am the first to try my best in helping those in a search. I just pray for the right reasons. :) I wish you all the best of luck for all your reserch!!
