I'm always amused at how many US residents claim Native American ancestry.


If you were prone to thinking, you wouldn't be surprised. Consider the massive number of rapes that were perpetrated by "Americans" on Indian women, Indian girls, Indian little boys.

Recently read a blog from someone who took this "test" and upon finding that she was 30% "White" was ashamed.

Speaks volumes.


It does indeed, Finn, but as is usually the case you assuredly missed it. The "White" may well have come from the person female ancestors being raped by Whites.

Folks who loved their genocide would not have balked at rape.

I have a cousin that I never met in Dallas. He is way into genealogy. He payed Family Tree to test my spit. My mother had told me, "We are Irish, Dutch and Indian." She ticked off three tribes of Native Americans. Turned out, I am 100% European. A series of dots on a map makes a sort of circle around Ireland, covering France and Sweden, among others. The heaviest concentration of the dots is over Ireland.


They keep refining the map of my origins, now making concentrations of color instead of using dots. Interestingly, Ireland is not as prominent, now. Three largest cities in my darkest circle are Glasgow, Edinburgh and Manchester.

I know my Mum was born in India & I know my fathers birthplace & family tree etc. I cannot say that it really interests me, I know enough already. I also know that in several years my family will end.
