Hi -

Wondering if anyone is still here? Is there a different sub?

I was adopted by white people and recently found my birth family through Ancestry. My mother and her family are members of the Pamunkey tribe. I live far away from Virginia now, so I wanted to connect with other tribe members online.

Hello!
