It was discovered their ancestor had no connection to the tribe families, we base our roll list off the members that showed up 1916 censius, while her "parents" showed up on the censius she did not, she would have been 8 at the time. A geneolgist and other agencies were involved. BUT that is what they are telling us, even going as far as posting the family trees in Jan for our families to review. Because they attempted to explain it to us.

Yes it is true people have been removed from the positions they held in the government and in the casino, due to events up north, everyone is very upset. It breaks our hearts to do this to people we grew up with.

We are not denying theyre native, just sadly not a part of our tribe.

if her "parents" are on the 1916 roll doesn't that make the family - grandchildren, great grandchildren and so forth tribal members? makes no sense to say they aren't tribal member while there are ancestors on the rool
