My wife passed in 1998–shortly after I did some genealogy research on her name and my own. Traced her family name back to 1610 with Champlain and my own to the Mayflower. Soon forgot about it.
During Covid I looked it up again and was absolutely astounded by all the new information that’s available.
I found out that somewhere between the whaling Captain and the whiskey trader in early Alberta there was an adoption. That adoption was probably a white kid but nothing else is known about him. So while I have the complete family tree back 12 generations to the Mayflower there is no genetic dna relation.
