This is a good discussion of ancient origins of the original american inhabitants. My great, great grandmother was 1/2 ojibwa(canadian tribe)back in the civil war days. As silly as it sounds, back in the jimmy carter days and minority hiring on construction projects, my dad went back to MN and got himself declared an ojibwa tribal member(for “consideration” of course). Thus as a electrical contractor he was the usual 10% minority on construction projects. Silly, but true....

There's a possibility you could be DNA haplogroup 'X'. Twenty five percent of the Ojibwa are 'X'.
