Answer 1

My mother told me when she was very little and traveled all over the United States with her parents that she ran into a particular tribe of Indians that were blonde and blue eyed. She also said the males were tall and stately and the women short and round. I have seen photographs of chiefs
Here is a quote I found:

Further to the phenomenon of the "white" Indian, Wabi Calazon, mentioned elsewhere. In the summer of 1974 I met and interviewed a young man, a Cree-Beaver Indian, whose anglicized name suggested that he might know something about blonde Indians like "Wabi". Although reluctant at first, and obviously shy about speaking of his people for fear of ridicule, he later confirmed that in his family there had been a number of blonde-headed, blue-eyed relatives, who, as far as he knew, were full-blooded Indians. He himself knew no English when he started at mission school in Grouard.

Answer 2

no. I dated an apache women, she didnt even like cherokee, flat face indians she would say,mean to, her first husband was a policeman in new orleans, and he hit her sometimes, so she told me she sewed him up in some sheets and stabed him, . she might have been makeing it up, I dont really know, she sure was pretty though. showed me a cover of vouge mag with her picture on the front cover.course she could have had that made up., you never know about people,the reason apache are so mean is that for many thousands of years they only ate red meat, no fish, not vegitables etc, only meat, it will make you mean if you only eat red meat,the old apaches got arthritis very bad from only eating red meat.indian people have black are very dark brown eyes. not blue,
