Erin had Cherokee ancestry!!


Over at IMDb it lists her heritage but it fails to mention her Cherokee heritage!!! A cousin of hers on Facebook mentions there is Cherokee in her family on her moms dads side!!

Probably something she is ashamed about. Weren't they the ISIS of their time? Sneaking into towns/villages and scalping and raping women?

I know on at least one episode of Happy Days she was out on a trail with some horses and some white cowboys tried to run her off the path and over a cliff because they found out she had Cherokee blood. Then the Fonz managed to drive his motorcycle up to the horses and stopped them just feet before the edge of the cliff. Then they started playing the music and end credits.
