My GEDmatch kit number: YE6505595

• Born and raised, with very deep roots, in Mississippi [and throughout the Southern United States].
• Born "Givens", which is known to be one of the most challenging surnames to trace. Hooray!
  

Through my ancestry research I have found that I am undoubtedly a " Scotch-Irish American " descending from the Ulster Scots of Northern Ireland.

I am also a descendant of Choctaw Indian Chief Mushulatubbee (on my mother's side), who was the chief of the Choctaw Okla Tannap, one of three major Choctaw divisions during the early 19th century. He is my 5th-Great Grandfather. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushulatubbee]
