Speaking of thanksgiving, are there any native americans on here?
I have always been interested in the history and the heritage. And my wife found out recently that she is 1/4 native american...though her biological mother is being a bit shady about it.
Is there anywhere we can research and find out more information on what tribe her ancestors are from?

Nothing against your wife, but I find that a lot of Americans say they have some sort of Native American Indian blood and they are full of total sh*t.
Stop thinking you're special and get with the big picture, 90% chance you are part German-Irish or something of the kind.
hahahha :)

I'm half dipsh*t that's about it.

Thanks for clarifying that.

at their peak there were only 1 Million Native American Indians around. Many of them stuck to their own path or were killed off.
chances of all these people I meet that say that stuff is slim to none.

Jazx-
Where exactly are you getting your numbers from. You are WAY off the mark. The numbers, of course, are politically charged, but according to Wikipedia the estimates are btween 8.4-112.5 million.

"she may have Indian blood"
Indians, are from India mate.
You may refer to them as Native Americans, which is what they are.
- JazX0
They are still referred to as Native American Indians by them themselves, etc.
I don't know about them numbers just what I have read. I'm sure it's vague. Just what I've heard.
And America isn't even America. Vespucci's claim is also shakey.

Let's get some clarification here: 64 million native american have partaken in the greatest act of genocide here on this continent.
JazX: 1million, ca'mon, have a little sensitivity and get your head out of your eurocentric/taker ass.

a little off-topic, but i created this site, http://www.nativethreads.com - native american clothing, etc.
the casinos in california make bank. if you are a member of the tribe you get a check every month. i've heard that some checks are in the thousands.
- JazX0
yeah I don't know what you mean, are you saying that 64 million Native Americans died.. that seems a little high to me. not what most historians have said. not that they are right or even absolutely sure about most things.
- JazX0
anyway I'm just goofing, I don't hate Native peoples anywhere
