Ancestry

[edit]

He said both his parents were 1/2, one parent half Choctaw, one parent half Cherokee. This would make him 1/4 BQ, and both his parents, and him, eligible for enrollment. His sourced genealogy is online. The census, military, etc records for both his parents all list them as white. One of his white grandparents died in Cherokee County, TX. That sort of thing is often how these stories start - a location name confused with an ancestor living in a tribe. - CorbieVreccan 03:18, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
