I hope that America can put this behind and move on. With regards to family trees, mixed race marriages were never illegal in my mother's country. No race stigmas there, more class envy. I can trace my roots back that far. My black great-great grandmother married her former owner in the Anglican church, but no children. Her father's whole side are all from the Dutch ruled Antilles, Spanish and Dutch. My dad was full blooded Italian. My background defies explanation and have flummoxed many from black muslims to neo-nazi skinheads.

Is she had no children, then how are you her great-great grandson?

That does not compute - if your great-great-grandmother had no children, how could she be anyone's great-great-grandmother.
