@Penny Is it the personal programming, I sometimes get sick to my stomach, dizzy and tired when I see or run into things that are "maybe are considered triggers". I am wondering if this is a trigger sign somehow....
...Keep an eye on you Ancestry though because when I first did it, on Ancestry it said I had 2% Swedish, but now it says I have 16% so it changes over time as more people get tested. My mother went from like 85% Germanic to 27% Swedish ?% Norway ?% Scottish and 22% German 5% Russian. So you have to keep coming back to look at it. I am kind of a fanatic about Ancestry, my mother got me hooked when I was younger, and I used to help her with searching the microfilm records back when they were all on microfilm.
I love history that has a flare, I have great great uncle that was put in the Arizona "Territorial" Prison before it was a state for stealing a horse. My great grandfather was assigned as a doctor on the trail of tears, he was a bit of a scoundrel. He got my great grandmother pregnant she was Apache and didn't want to marry her so he went and married a white woman before my grandfather was born. I like to say everyone has a story, and at least one scoundrel in there but that's what makes Ancestry interesting. Most of the encounters I have had have been good, there are a few that get angry that we are related. On the Apache side the surname was Apodaca, I found her birth record, because the Spaniards have been keeping track since like 1600's. This guy contacted me and was really angry, telling me that there was no way we were related, but we traced back the DNA and he apologized, but yeah some people can go a little crazy about it. Also there is a guy in Pennsylvania that was mad he was adamant "we do not have any Native American in our family". He is first cousin to my Dad (so the scoundrel great grandfather, had another child out of wedlock). He was really prejudice about it and mean so, the last time I spoke with him he was a prick. So I wrote him back and was really snarky with him, I was like well you have Native American in your family now haha. Most other encounters are pretty nice though and most will share photos or whatever they have documents and stories.
@Sam131 yeah I know through records

Final Rolls of the Five Civilized Tribes, I found my great grandmother on there. I think they were part of the Trail of Tears. Most Native American Tribes are highly elusive and protective about genealogy, it wasn't until I told a this Apache guy (one of the leaders for White Mountain Apache) that I was not looking for any tribal funds that he finally helped me. I kind of had to prove to him I had a good job and wasn't out for free money or any kind of notoriety.
As for Utah and Idaho, I live close to the Idaho border, I know a lot of Swedish/German/Scandinavian people settled here. The area reminded them a lot of home. My mother's grandmother settled here because of this, she didn't speak English almost at alll and there were a lot of people here that spoke German.
There are a lot of religions that believe in some form of off planet people or places. In the old Testament Genesis mentions it too. Scientology when they get so high in it to find out about Xenu an alien if I got that right. Hindu they fight each other in big cities in the sky. ...There is a guy and I am kind of new to the UFO community I want to say his name is Eric Danican he wrote a book about it. That is on my to read list.
Its not so bad here anymore the Mormon people as a whole are really nice, I have a lot of Mormon friends now. When I was younger. I didn't understand why I could not hang out with certain people because I was not Mormon. So growing up in a predominantly Mormon Society was rough I agree, and half of the time I had no clue what they were talking about, it almost felt like secret code. Anyways I hope this link catalog.archives.gov/id/608958 helps you find your Native American Ancestor
