How can I find my grandfather's tribe? He was adopted from Aberdeen Orphanage in Virginia during the 1870's or 1880's. He was living in Houston,Texas when he married my grandmother.
There is some possibility that my lineage may be Iroquoi.
After reading the information biographing the Saponi, and their differences with the Iroquois, I am thinking the maybe my grandfather's family was taken by the Saponi during a conflict many years before he was born. Maybe he was adopted out because he was of a different tribe biologically.
maybe not. I want to find the truth.
Any information may be a help at this point.
