I would like to know if my great great grandmother was Native American

Hello Tijuanarains,

Thank you for posting your question on History Hub!

We suggest that you begin by talking to your various family members, especially the more senior ones, and ask them questions so you can gather names, dates, places, and stories. With that information in hand, you may begin to gather records about these family members and the places associated with them.  

In addition, we suggest that you review the NARA Native American Heritage webpage, the NARA Resources for Genealogists webpage, the History Hub Blog titled Suggestions and Advice for Family History Researchers, the FamilySearch Research wiki pages for Indigenous Peoples of the United States Genealogy and United States Genealogy, the Bureau of Indian Affairs page for Tracing American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) Ancestry, the Department of the Interior page on Trace Indian Ancestry, and the Smithsonian page on Native American Genealogy. 

Also, the Library of Congress pages on We are trying to compile a family history, What free resources can I use for genealogy?, and Local History and Genealogy Reference Services may be useful.

Hopefully other community members may have additional suggestions.

We hope this information has been helpful!
