My wife says her grandmother was a Cherokee princess.
The Cherokee, like other Native American cultures, do not have royalty or royal titles. The word "princess" is a title imported from Europe. The Cherokee are a matrilineal society. Clan membership is passed through the mother's side. However, the "princess" title is not tied to this.
Had to share this it is from one of my Cherokee history books.
