I read his autobiography a number of years ago. You probably know this already- but there’s actually a passage where he describes visiting one of his female relatives as a youngster. She was smoking a pipe, and he described her in no uncertain terms as being Indian. (Some historians later questioned this account- but I would think it would be easier to prove/disprove with DNA sampling, etc. these days).
