Well, I can say I'm a mutt. German, Irish, Polish, Welsh............and damned proud of it. I know this from the family history that has been handed down.
Mutts are so much smarter than inbred "blue bloods"..................

Can you say Elizabeth Warren being Indian? She and I are alike, except I am sure about mine. A great, great, grandfather married an Indian woman during the Trail of Tears. The Choctaw Indians came through Arkansas on their way to Oklahoma where they were forced to go. They stayed a while in Arkansas and this great/great/grandfather married an Indian woman from that tribe. This was spoken family history through the generations, everyone knew it. Going through the generations, I calculated I am 1/16 Indian. Except for the bit of Indian, I am English on both sides. I have fair skin as does Warren and we both have blue eyes. There is a speck of brown in one of my eyes and an eye doctor said I was lucky I didn't have one blue eye and one brown eye.

We can go way back too. Both of my grandmas kept a family tree. We always thought we were Scot Irish and English. But one of my sisters did the DNA test and I told her never get into trouble with that high Scandinavian percentage. That was actually a surprise and not so common here.
