The Chapman Family Tree

Our name is English, but we have 3 main genetic strands: German, English and Native (Cherokee Indian). I am personally 6.25% Cherokee (same percentage as Obama is Black), 12.5% German, 75% English and 3.125% Swedish & 3.125% Dutch. Here's the documentation:

First, although this is not my real great-grandfather,
it is my mother smiling (on the right of the photo).

This is a lot what my relative looked like ...
albeit it was a woman: Lucy Goldinghawk

   
Isaac Spencer with his brand-new car (Less than $400 retail).
He (Granddad) was age 23 in this photo. You may read about him in my Mother's book "Anatomy of Tragedy", available for $10.
Grandmom is the youngest (standing) child in front row of the above photo. She passed away in April, 2004. She was 97 years old. I was there with her.
