Hello my name is Jericho Stuntz. My grand father would be Joseph Killsright Stuntz. What I’m trying to do is find out who his parents are so I can find out what tribe I’m from so I can possibly meet some of family from that side. He was murdered in 1970’s but I don’t know very much else because both of his sons were really young and has passed away within the last 10 years so there’s no real information on my grandfather. Any information on where I should look or what I should do would be greatly appreciated! Thank you and I’m hoping to hear from you guys!
