Question for info on Native American? Question: Ok, I'm 27 and just found out that my great grandmother was born on a reservation we think in Oklahoma. When she was a child a church took her and adopted her out to a Mexican family. A comman practice back then. Is there a way to get information on her and find which tribe she belonged to? Maybe a website? My dad's uncle still lives on a reservation but my family said I don't want to contact him. We believe she was Apache. Thanks
Answer:
I have not ever researched native americans. You should be able to get adoption records now. See the first site listed below. That will give clues.
Here are some useful web sites for Native Americans.
Once you have records of your GGMother, you might find DNA Studies.

Sill Oklahoma and being used
in some sick satanic ritual by the organization known as the Skull and Bones?

Country Song... 10pts? Question: Name, artist, where i can download it = 10pts
400,000 miles of broke down truck

She's a 2-door picture of a broken down queen

And I'll tell it to their cities and their big city scenes

Native Americans still living in the United States? Question: I've just started reading a book by Eric Foner called Give Me Liberty and I was look at a map of the Native American nations. I was wondering are there still as many tribes still left within the United States like the Comanche's, Apache's, Iroquois, The Sioux, Cheyenne nations still around within the United States I think they established there own church didn't they? Also do they not have an annual get-together a pow wow which I think is held in Oklahoma each year.
As you can tell I am not American but I have always been interested in American history so I maybe asking more of these sort of questions in the future. Also can you tell which Native Americans in Florida own casino's. Are the Native Americans still respected by the people of the USA. Thank You.
Answer:
There are still many of our people here...there are a few smaller tribes that had few people in their tribe...and seem to have gone...Some joined other tribes....some married into different tribes...But, ...Even in the silence of the wind they are there`
Our people have pow wow...gatherings...ceremonials
you are thinking of Red Earth powwow in Oklahoma...the gathering of our people are held all over the united states every year.....You are more than welcome to come and see...they are open to the public..as with everything else...their are rules to follow....we ask only to come with an open mind, heart with honor and respect
If you ever come here from Scotland...you should go to a pow wow...but for now...look up powwow and you will see many pictures

he was occasionally allowed to appear at worlds fairs and wild west shows. he died in captivity and is buried at fort sill.
Answer:
Unlike the other people answering this question I actually did read all of the information provided. I like doing essays and I am very good at writing them, but you information on Geronimo doen't help compare or contrast Coyote the Trickster except for the fact that they were both tricksters.
Coyote tricked the dude that owned the buffalo because the other people of the land had no buffalo and the dude was hoarding them all for himself. Geronimo tricked usa soldiers because of rage of the mexican soldiers murdering his family and because he was forced to leave his homeland.
Hope I helped a little bit kid but you can't just straight up ask people to do your homework for you.
