How do i trace my family history since i half black and half indian and 1/4 white?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Hey Gwen,

You trace your family history the same way anyone does, with Vital Records. Use Birth, Marriage and Death certificates. The fact that the addition of percents/fractions does not add up, in the end, you will not use those numbers anyway. So, get all the birth, marriage and death records for you, your parents, their parents, and great grandparents you can. Interview all your living relatives and document the dates and locations of BMDs. Send away and get the records.
