If your family has been in the americas that long, I'd be stunned if you
didn't have any "indian" blood. It would be safer to say "no
documented
American Indian genes".
My grand-father had a family tree drawn up when he joined the Knights of
Malta (Soverign and Military Order thereof). Goes back to before the
Romans occupied Wales. And the Royal Herald of England's signature to
prove it. Eeep!
