I am one generation from my Seminole Native American Heritage, and only two generations from Slavery.  Native Americans are aboriginals to this land, and many of their surnames came from the "House".  The mother and children were named after the "House".  If the Governor was McCain, the mother and children took on the surname McCain.  My Native American parents, grandparents, great grandparents, uncles, aunts, and first cousins had many surnames as children.  They are listed on the Oklahoma Dawes Rolls, as full blood Native Americans.  The same individual listed with different surnames, with many roll and card numbers.  Many of my Native American family members were forced marched out of Mississippi into Kansas, and into the Arkansaw/Oklahoma Indian Territory.  Their many Mississippi Card Numbers never was posted on the Seminole Dawes Rolls of Oklahoma.  Names are common.  When names, and card numbers are associated with land that is rich in minerals, a form of Royalty is created.  Our economic wealth is part of this Royalty, that our ancestors were disenfranchised from by having many names and card numbers.
