How much do our ancestors tell us about ourselves? If you found out your ancestor was a bi-racial madame in the early 1800s that own her own business and kept a lawyer on retainer, would that make you proud? Would it boost your self-esteem? James Nathan III and Brandon Massey share with us the story of Melvina, the most notorious madame in red river valley (North Dakota). When you shake your family tree, you never know who could fall out. Like it or not, our past does tells us a lot about ourselves. Make sure to research and document your history as far back as possible. There may be a big surprise of enlightenment in it for you.
