How can I trace a tribal ancestry?
I’ve always been interested in my ancestry. When I was young, my grandpa claimed we were Native American. I asked him more recently and he told me that I was a descendant of the Iroquois. Also, both my great-uncles told me the same thing. Is there any free way I could trace this. I’m really interested and would like to find out more. Also, it has to be free, my mom doesn’t want to pay for anything.
You probably should ask your grandpa and/or great uncles for more information.The “Iroquois” are a confederacy in New York and Canada and there are also other tribes that speak Iroquoian dialects.
Once you have a name,tribe,and location,get all the paperwork you can to prove descent from a tribe member.Then,and only then,should you approach the tribal office to see if you might meet their requirements.The tribal office will not do your genealogy for you,you have to do it.
P.S.-Join a good genealogy site such as Ancestry.com or Rootsweb.
They’re not free,but it’s well worth it to get scores of searchable databases.
Good luck in finding your way home!
