31. same thing happened in my family

Nov 2017

for years the rumor was that we were part Native American and we looked it too. When anyone asked our nationality they said "you've got to be Native American" and we said "yes" ... WRONG. We thought we were but recently my brother traced the family back hundreds of years and not one drop of Native American, we're totally Anglo Saxon. We honestly thought were but at least we never used a fake name like Drumpf (or whatever it is).
