1/16 is good enough for the Cherokee if you can prove it, and proving it involves having a direct ancestor listed on either the Guion Miller roll if Eastern Cherokee or the Dawes roll if Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma. Legendary ancestry doesn't cut it and sometimes blood ties don't if your ancestors applied and show up on the rolls as denied, usually due to having lived apart from the tribe for too long. I've got seven on the Guion Miller roll, a former chief is a third cousin, but would not ever be accepted into the tribe because the applications of those seven were denied, they'd lived apart from the tribe and intermarried among whites for over a century.

Can’t say that. I got beat up on FR, awhile back, for suggesting something similar.

Conservapedia doesnt give much information but does indicate that the Ainu predate the Jomon period. Hmmm, oddly enough, most everything I've run across on the subject indicates Jomon as precursors of the Ainu but like you say, who knows. There may be some political and/or cultural issues involved as well.

Excellent point!!! I marvel at the range of knowledge I find on FR. Been around for a while but have noticed a general change in the level of discourse. Much briefer and much more crude and base. Kinda like our society.
