Partly, Yes.More detail:If you are 1/16 Native American (Indian), then you are considered Indian enough to qualify for Indian benefits, depending on your state's guidelines.For example, if your great grandmother was full Cherokee, then your grandmother would have been 1/2 Indian. This would have made your parent 1/4 Indian, and you 1/8 Indian, and your children 1/16 Indian.But in order to apply for, and receive certain Native American benefits, you must have proof of your heritage.
Presuming that there is no other Indian blood in the lineage, you would be 1/16th American Indian. Whether or not you would be legally considered an Indian, depends on which tribe your G-Grandmother was enrolled in. All tribes have different requirements that would-be members need to meet for enrollment; including a minimum blood quantum. Assuming your specific tribe accepts a minimum Indian blood quantum of 1/16 or more, and all other requirements are met for enrollment- then yes, you're legally Indian.
