I have Cherokee Ancestors on both sides. I believe 3 generations back on my father's side and 4 on my mother's. My nose comes from my father's side and it definitely can be traced back to the paternal Native American ancestors. Looking at old family photos on my mother's side the shape of my face comes from my maternal Native American ancestors. My great great err great? grandmother's native american name meant tall trees. There are many short women on my mother's side except for me, my mother and a cousin. My aunts are convinced that's where my height comes from. The women on my father's side are tall though. So whatever.
I may have certain physical traits that my family has inherited from our Native American ancestors, but we've never been a part of the culture. I am a "briar-hopper" as my mother/grandmother would say. I am probably one step above a redneck and I'm cool with that. I wouldn't consider myself Cherokee.
