I'm pretty sure I'm 100% western European.

So I'm like, white to the extreme.

I think one of my great x4 grandparents was Cherokee.  Which would make me something like 1/64 Native American.  Hardly enough to really notice or matter, to be quite honest.  I'm about as much of a paleface as you can get.

There are no real fractions in racial makeup. If you have no Amerind chromosomes present, or you have them all as recessive, you will not, in any way, appear to have ONE Amerind trait.

Hell, they could be all gone by now.

That's what I figured.  I was mainly going by how many of my great x4 grandparents were what.  I don't ever really claim to be anything but white, to be honest.

let me know though if you find that amerind chromosome because I look through my genes and all I can find is 1 chromoome from my dad and 1 from my mom. and since they mixed themselves heck if I can find that 1 chromosome.
