You make a good point, as all of us have variant traces of ethnic blood, I think. However, when talking about blood quantums, specifically for indigenous peoples, we trace back 4 generations. With that said, my mother's family (parents and grandparents) were all native. My father's family (parents and grandparents) where all native, too... for the last 4 generations... (actually, longer than that). But, if we get techincal... yes, generations back there lurks some Irish, Scot, English blood in there. Hell, pilgrims and settlers hit the east coast first and mixed marriages did occur. Fact. :)
Either way... I still have those sexy bedroom eyes (and for the record... they are hazel - bluish green, grey, green with brown specs, etc). ;)
