The African American story is definitely more complex than even most AAs know. There were indentured servants from India brought to the East coast of the U.S. who mixed in with black people during the colonial period. They were referred to as East Indian Indians (Yes they wrote it twice so they weren't confused with Native Americans who they called Indians). There was also Africans of mixed Asian and Southeast bantu origin from Madagascar brought to the East Coast. In the South, in the Delta Region Mississippi and Louisiana a few hundred Chinese men married black women because there was few Asian women around and it was a law in some states that they couldn't marry white women. Again in the late 1800s-1900s Bengali men (eastern Pakistan) came by steam boat, some as merchants and they weren't allowed to marry white women so they married Puerto Rican and Black American women in Harlem and in Louisiana. Chilli from the singing group TLC is mixed with Bengali due to this history and some AAs are finding south Asian on their dna test now and are so confused. That doesn't even touch all the different types of Europeans who enslaved AAs; Swedish, English, Irish, Germans( In Texas and North Carolina), Scottish, French, Dutch (New York was originally Dutch speaking so Sojourner Truth first language was an old version of Dutch). And some of us indeed have indigenous ancestry I know people say it but some of us actually descend partially from native tribes who mixed with Africans.

I wonder if he meant tracy "even" knew his grandmother's mother in the sense of his great grandmother lived long enough to be able to meet him, or something else. It's interesting how names we associate with women were used as male names. His great grandmother could have left her husband for a variety of reasons. "Your great grand mother took up with another man and split", while plausibly accurate felt disrespectful especially when saying it to a person finding out for the first time. "I just wanna know how my great-great-grandmother got pregnant" is a whole conversation in itself. When he kissed the picture - Wow! I felt that. He would be proud of you Tracy.

​@PHlophe - Huh? You're WAY off! People were supposed to be married with AT LEAST their first kid by their mid-20's back then. Only middle class people could wait to marry (after college or a good factory or government job). Life expectancy was tricky and families were needed to WORK- farming, share cropping, survival was a group effort. Girls who were over 18 and still at home were burdens, so they needed to marry OR work (share cropping, cotton fields, domestic work, laundresses or raising younger siblings).
