If you do the research online, Ms. Harjo's Blood Quantum comes out to this,

1/8 Creek (at most) - She says he was "Creek" - but she also says her father's grandfather was the "full blooded" Creek.1/4 Cherokee (at most) - She's somewhat undecided here. In some articles she claims her mother is "half" and in some articles "part" Cherokee.

1/8 Irish

1/8 French

...and part "African American" through Osceola (I thought Osceola was SEMINOLE not Creek!)

I don't know. Someone ask her her real blood quantum. This will clear things up! And make sure she has a blood quantum card from her reservation to prove it! Ha ha!!

Is Jamie Sams really native American?

She claims to be of Cherokee and Seneca decent and there have been no counter claims against her statements (IE: No official of either tribe has said differently). It is also important to note that "Native American" is not the "blood quantum" or other such things, is is more of a way that you live your life. From the titles of her books (taken at face value) she is most likely living on those paths. See her website linked below.

How does one find out or where does go to find out if and how much Indian blood the?

Different tribes have different measures in place to make these determinations, and you would need a basis to understand 'how' that tribe looks at its relations. For example: One tribe only sees MALE descendants, another only sees FEMALE descendants, by registered blood quantum - while on the other hand there are other tribes that see an "Indian" as his social status within the community in which they live and ignore the DNA or Blood Quantum questions altogether.


Will blood samples prove your native American heritage?

DNA analysis of blood samples can help determine your heritage, but comparison to a particular tribe or family would be necessary for you to lay any claims of parentage. Typically the US government will only recognize your lineage if you can prove that one of your great grandparents were 50% Native to a particular tribe or tribal group. Each tribe has their own determinations.
