I'm wondering how many folks, especially in states that had large Indian populations at one time (or were moved there) claim to be Indians, while having a tenuous connection at best. I guess I could be considered Indian as my paternal Great Grandmother had some Indian blood, and my Daddy's profile looked for all the world like the one of the Indian on the back of the Buffalo nickel! I don't consider myself Indian, except when describing the mixture from both my parents. Some folks want to be considered part of a group, for whatever reason, and don't like that being questioned by anyone.
