This is my grandfather.

Hmm, he looks a tad young to be a grandfather.

But, seriously, I'm with you. Supposedly, my great-grandma was half Cherokee, and I may have some other Native American ancestry. I've never once tried to use that heritage to get any special advantages.

The majority of Americans whose ancestors came here during the 1800s or earlier probably have some Native American ancestry. It's fun to talk about, but really doesn't mean anything substantial.

I don’t have a photo of him as an adult on my computer. He also looks very good for a dead man.
