Our Goffs were from the wrong side of the tracks. In Van Cleave. The papa Isaac Newton Goff married Eliza Eley who was purported to be Indian. She couldn't go to a white school because she was not white so she was "non-white". The grandchildren are very Indian in appearance. Darker skin. Other features as Indian as the color.

Are there any photos of these as school children? Or in histories that societies have produced?
