Native American genealogy research from the Piedmont of NC & VA
i’m new to this so i hope i do it right. My son is doing a report on Blackfoot Indians, i know little about my ancestors but i do have surnames. So im looking for help on how to research this correctly. Ty to anyone who can help!
Which Blackfoot is he reporting on? We are eastern Siouan descendents, many with ancestors who said they were Blackfoot.
Are you referring to surnames in this group? There is a story on the opening screen of this site that mentions many of these names. Go to http://www.Saponitown.com and click on Blackfoot article.
