Re: How much trickles down to actual members of indian tribes?

Hmm ... I'm 1/16th Native American (some tribe (which one I don't know) in Cass County, Missouri).
Perhaps it's time I do some digging to find the name (and tribe) of my Great, Great, Grandmother (on my mother side), who was full blood Native American and see if I can get some money! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I would hope you're kidding, but most tribes have no smaller than 1/8th blood quantum to become a member, and even then some tribes require a parent to be a member. There are some that have 1/16th, but I can guarantee that the ones giving it 7k+ a month are NOT those tribes.
