Default OT How old are you and how were you taught to read?

In article ,

Reading did expand my vocabulary. I read 'The Foxes of Harrow' that was
laying around the house and enjoyed it greatly. That did lead to some
questions at school concerning how a 7th grade kid came to know about
quadroons and octoroons.




I am trying to come up with how I am realated to Warren. My grandmother
on my dad's side claimed to be 1/6 Indian. For the last couple of years
I have been putting down Native American on all places that ask about
race. I can easly trace my mother's side to German. Not sure where the
red hair came in.No one on my dad's side had red hair and I don't know
anything about my mother's side of her mother. Just that my mother did
have red hair.
