Familial legends are just that; legends. I have heard my familial legends that were equally romantic about the no no of marrying Native Americans but having a family anyway. For the longest time I believed them. Why wouldn't I? I was raised with the lore. People I trusted told the stories over and over. Then the DNA test was done on one of my family. THERE WAS NO CHANCE THE LORE WAS TRUE. None. No chance.
You would not BELIEVE how many people are decedents from the Mayflower!

Cherokee genealogist casts doubt on Elizabeth Warren's story of parents' elopementquote:
But The Washington Times reported that Cherokee genealogist Twila Barnes wrote in a 2016 blog that the story doesn't make sense. Barnes, who has researched Warren's family and found no evidence of Native American ancestry, researched the marriage of Pauline Reed and Donald Herring and found it appeared to be an ordinary wedding.
“The problem with Warren’s story is that none of the evidence supports it,” Barnes wrote. “Her genealogy shows no indication of Cherokee ancestry. Her parents’ wedding doesn’t resemble an elopement. And additional evidence doesn’t show any indication of her Herring grandparents being Indian haters.”
The wedding was performed by a prominent Methodist clergyman, not a justice of the peace, Barnes found. She also noted that a detailed wedding announcement was posted in the local newspaper in Wetumka, Oklahoma.
“If Ms. Warren’s parents eloped due to her mother being ‘Cherokee and Delaware’ and it was such a disgrace, why did they rush back to Wetumka the same day they were married and proudly announce it to everyone?” asked Ms. Barnes. “If there was shame associated with the marriage and it caused so many problems, why was it happily announced in the local paper?”

parabellumAll of these lies are about nothing but her personal advancement. None of the lies she's telling about her ancestry are for the benefit of any group or anyone else but herself.

CromHer heritage can be traced directly back to the famous guide for Lewis & Clark: Sacagawarren, after whom she was named.
"Crom is strong! If I die, I have to go before him, and he will ask me, 'What is the riddle of steel?' If I don't know it, he will cast me out of Valhalla and laugh at me."

But, but, but, she knows who she is, and doesn't need a DNA test to prove it. And she has never used her heritage to gain advantage.
(I don't know how she can look at herself in the mirror).
