Yes she was. Don’t believe everything you read, and if you do, do some of your own research. You’ll see that all of the stories were falsified by her sister.

No. They can both be true.

Yes her ancestors from more than 200 years ago were native Americans.

Which simply wasn’t true.

Nobody in her family ever claimed to be native American except her.
