ninadd Posted August 29 Report Share Posted August 29 I know this isnt club related but is an intersting topic. If you can prove you part native american you are entitled to a percentage of their casinos plus alot of collage money depending on percentage. The problem in the past is that you have to have 100% proof that you are part native american. They now offer DNA testing at home that proves you are which is legal proof. My family has been trying to prove for a decade now that we are related to one of the chiefs of the lene lenape tribe but a family tree is not legal enough. This opens new doors to getting money that we are owed. Just in case you think you might be part native american this could be a good opportunity.

ou812 Posted August 29 Report Share Posted August 29 Don't hold your breath nina. This is a fallacy, don't expect an at home DNA test to get you raking in any cash.Apparently if your family wasn't registered, then you aren't entitled to anything. http://www.cherokee.org/Services/TribalRegistration.aspJust using the Cherokee as an exampleDon't let someone fool with that information up there.

We had a family tree and as much evidence as we could get but was not good enough so DNA might be the key to help prove our origin- but you may be right it could turn up as nothing. Good looking out!! but either way is will put my familys mind at ease cuz they really want to know our real family tree - they have been working on it for a long time just for fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the test results we can reapply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
