My great-great grandmother was full-blooded Mohawk. I recently learned that she had been a midwife in Canada where her parents had settled. I never knew any of my grandparents. They were all gone before I was born in 1947. I always felt that I missed out a lot in not knowing any of them. My Dad came from Holland as a little boy, and my mother was born in Canada.
My grandmother left the Qualla reservation when she married my grandfather...They lived in the East Tennessee mountains...
