Our family has always known that we are of Native
American Ancestory. However, no known Traditions survived.
One night, my Daughter had a very impressive dream. An Indian Woman came to her and said, "You don't know me yet, but my name is Winomah; And you are Eagles Wind."
About 10 months later, my mother's Gen. researching found our Shawnee Indian Ancestor, "Winomah". This "Naming" through dreams is very Traditional in Native Cultures.
So... Traditions can carry on through our Spirit Ancestors.
