[quote=Anonymous]Well that’s really sad and interesting the Apache never bothered to put her. (I’ve been to the White Mountain reservation. It’s not a particularly large community.). I don’t think the author really got the Yaqui thing right—the reservation in Arizona is a relatively recent late 20th century reservation so of course her father would not have been affiliated. They came largely as refugees from the Mexican civil war. But the Yaqui native laned is northern Mexico, in the Sonora region, I think, and was then widely dispersed through much of Mexico in what was a more than hundred year period of repression and enslavement. So it is possible that her father was part Yaqui. Apache seems less likely but I think the Apache did range down into Mexico prior to the reservation system so would have been many generations prior. Anyway, I thought the article was ooorly written with respect to the Yaqui piece, at least. [/quote]
