| Nov 29, 2012 at 10:14 | comment | added | ACProctor | While this doesn't answer your question, I would like to point out that Native American personal names will strain, if not break, the capabilities of most software products. They have no general structure and so their components cannot be categorised as surname, family-name, given-name, etc. They also change through the life of the person, e.g. an infant name, adult name, war name. I would like to know how researchers with this type of family history cope at the moment. | |

| Oct 23, 2012 at 13:50 | comment | added | GeneJ | Welcome to the site, user309. We are all working together to learn how to write great questions in the Q&A format. Please consider limiting the scope of your question to a problem you face. As written, the scope of researching "native American ancestry" from "old family stories" is overly broad to me. In the alternative, if you are facing this problem, please share the specifics. | |
