Will Rogers was the
renaissance man of
the American West.
He used to say:
“My ancestors didn’t
come over on the
Mayflower, but they
met the boat". He was a Cherokee by heritage but Irish and Scottish by higher percentages of
pedigree. In 1887, at the age of seven, Will was packed off to a school called Drumgoole, operated
by the Cherokee Nation. 7 was just enough white that they suspected my honesty" said Will. “My
father was one-eighth Cherokee and my mother was a quarteK-blood Cherokee. I never got far
enough in arithmetic to figure out how much injun that made me, but there’s nothing of which I
m am more proud than my Cherokee blood”.
