Why did she lie? Finding the truth about Daisy became the impetus for writing this book. Louis, Missouri, for decades, until a Dooley cousin told me in 2006 that my grandmother was actually born in the Deep South. Also interesting was the tale she told about her birthplace. That set me off on a forty year + adventure to find out who those people were. Grandma Daisy said we had European, African, and Blackfoot Indian blood. I wrote letters to both grandmothers asking why we look the way we look. I never claimed anything other than African beginnings, but I really didn't know about our lineage. An elder, African American co-worker asked who the white people were in my family on my third day at work. Truly, my interest in family history started with my indomitable grandmother, Daisy Rae Dooley Marshall Schumake, in 1976.
