2004 MailReply to Bonnie Jansen on Native American HeritageFrom Calobe Jackson, Jr., July 9, 2004 Dear Bonnie, I recently read a review that claims that many Indians were possible absorbed and/or listed as Blacks or Mulattos in the census records after the 1790 census. The number of free Blacks increased exponentially after 1790 and no one is sure why. One reason may be that some Indians were counted as free Blacks or Mulattos. You may have Indian or Black blood in your family and it's knowledge was not disclosed. Calobe Jackson |
