When an area got wind of when the white men who collected the children were on their way, they would rub charcoal over their children to make them look darker. It did not work because the men threw the children into the creek, and then took them of course.
I am up to page 131 of the pdf - square eyes - only 400 pages to go..The stuff I have read up to there talks about 'half/quarter' breed children not full bloods. Your comment above agrees with that notion but I thought you said previously that it applied across the board - ie full blood too?
It's also by state so it gets a little disjointed.
