Deena,Anyone who would discourage a person from connecting with their roots based on physical features is simply ignorant.Most of your people from the South, in general (including W.V), are descendants of American Indians. Unfortunately,there are very few Native Americans of pure blood in the United States today.By the way...Beckman sounds like an English surname,you might have some royal blood in your lines!Personally,if I had to choose which sounds more blelievableIndian vs. royal lines in Cabell and Wayne Counties,West Virginia c.a early 1800's,I would put my money on the Indian blood, by golly.How do you think these "pioneers" survived?mgt
