[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would someone prove eligibility? [/quote] Robust genealogy research? Three of my ancestors were slaves - depending on how open the owner was about sleeping with his slaves, it's pretty easy to prove. :cry: [/quote] What's the percentage that will qualify? I'm 1% Nigerian according to 23 and Me, and FamilySearch says that 1% is from an ancestor who lived in the early 1800s. I'm white and my family is white as far as anyone could tell to look at. Would I qualify? Would my kids? Would my grandkids? Are we going to go with a blood quantum? [/quote] My husband has 1% Nigerian DNA. His mother's family is from the south. Yet I've found no Black ancestors and I've researched his genealogy very extensively. This percentage is more likely from Europe. Also, it may change. I had 2% Jewish DNA listed but now I have none. Unless you know you have a Black ancestor, I doubt you do.[/quote]
