Native American adoption in ancestor search.....?

Question

was it common for people in the U.S. to adopt Native American children into the family. I have come across that in genealogy searches in my 2nd husband's fam and 1st husbands fam. One was approximately 1895(Texas) and the other was aprrox 1910 (Maryland).

thanks

Answer 1

Texas in 1895 is very possible... I won't say how "common".  For Maryland in 1910, I would be very skeptical.  Do you have some documentation?
