Will Rogers was one of the few celebrities who had direct links to his Native American ancestry. He was born on Dog Iron Ranch in Indian Territory. His parents were both of Cherokee descent to a degree that Rogers himself was just over 1/4th Cherokee. His mother was a hereditary member of the Paint Clan. One of his famous lines was that his family did not come over on the Mayflower, but they were there to meet the boat.

    Are you kidding me?! The person who wrote 20 celebs you didn’t know have native American blood. You had Ben Bratt and said he really doesn’t count? Are you ignorant? His mother is indigenous person of South AMERICA. The original people that lived on the land we call north central and south America are all “native americans”.
