I was told:  My Grandfather had told us we had "Blackfoot" indian blood. I done some checking and was confused that the "Blackfeet" were in the NW area, and my Grandfathers family was from the TN area. I was happy to find an article on the Sissapaha that were known as "Blackfoot" in that area. I wrote a letter in 1997 to a relative up north-that I still have never met, and she confirmed the Blackfoot family history. I contacted another distant relative in Mitchell, IN, and she too confirmed that same story. I also talked with a man who had been born out of wedlock to my Grandfathers brother and he claims that it is the 'Blackfeet' out west through my Grandfather "Austin's' side. I have 4 different sources that all have the common Blackfoot history.
