African American Records Template
Hi Joan! I just wanted to thank you for your contributions and make sure you knew that it is a good idea to preview each time you add to the wiki. The template that you are adding today may need some adjusting on some of the pages. It is pushing the outline to the center of the page. Please let us know if you need help with this.

Thank you! SavingStories 18:00, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Indian Question
My uncle said my great grandmother told him she was an indian and adopted as a baby. Grandmother believes it is Cherokee and they were living in Nebraska. How would you approach this problem?


 * You must search from the known to the unknown.  FInd your great grandmother in other records, if she was adopted her records  (marriage, birth of her children, death) would be intermingled - Search church, and civil records, Search for her death record and obituary.  It is unlikely there were any adoption papers.

We are starting up the North American Project Would you like to work on it again

 * Do you mean North American Indian Project?


 * Who is We?
