My Papaw is from Ironton, Ohio. He said his father was Blackfoot (he was not proud of that and blamed his father’s alcoholism on it). My mom’s DNA has Native American, western African, German, English, Irish, and Portuguese.

I definitely have Melungeon ancestry. My Papaw's last name is Mullins. I also have the shovel shaped incisors and that bump on the back of my head.
