Jews who decide to live in Israel have officials take information about them, and there were lost tribes of Ethiopian Jews who needed to undergo special conversions to be recognized as Jews.
Ethiopian blood only comes from Ethiopians.

Sadly, no. Some Ethiopian Jews remain in Ethiopia.
There are around 150,000 Ethiopian Jews, compared with 14 million Jews total. This makes Black Jews 1.1% of all Jews, since non-Ethiopian Black Jews are incidental thousands. Tribes such as the Lemba which do not engage in Jewish practices are not counted; and the Black Israelite Churches like COGASOC are not considered Jews. It is unclear what a "White Jew" is. If you are strictly talking about Ashkenazim, they make up roughly 10.5 million Jews which is 75.0% of all Jews. The remaining 23+% is made up of Mizrahim, Romaniotes, Bukharian Jews, Chinese Jews, Indian Jews, and other "exotic Jews."

NO. The Ethiopian Jewish community is relatively old, but not older than the communities that trace their lineage back to places in the Middle East (like Iraq, Iran or Egypt).
yes because queen Sheba who is Ethiopian married king Solomon and now Lot's of Ethiopian Jews live in Israel
A study by Professors Lucotte and Smets has shown that the genetic father of Beta Israel (Ethiopian Jews) was close to the Ethiopian non-Jewish populations. This is consistent with the theory that Beta Israel are descendants of ancient inhabitants of Ethiopia, not the Middle East. Hammer et al. in 2000, and the team of Shen in 2004, arrive at similar conclusions, namely that the DNA of the Ethiopian Jews probably indicates a conversion of local populations. A 2012 study showed that while primarily related to the local populations, Ethiopian Jews have very distant genetic links to other Jews, and are likely descended from a few Jewish founders. It has been concluded that the community began when a few itinerant Jews who settled in Ethiopia in ancient times, converted locals to Judaism, and married into the local populations. It has been estimated that this happened some 2,000 years ago.
You're asking about Ethiopian Jews. I couldn't find information about that.
Answer 1Yes and they commonly do.There is dispute as to whether the Ethiopian Jews are (as they claim) descended from the Tribe of Dan and there are some people (both Jews and non-Jews) who claim to be descended from the lost tribes. However, Jews that identify as Cohens or Levis are in essence saying that they belong to the tribe of Levi and other Jews who do not identify that way consider themselves to be of the tribe of Judah.Answer 2The answer is no (with the exception of Cohanim and Levis). The majority of Jews, roughly 90%+, identify themselves by default as being of the tribe of Judah, but not because they have specific family information to that effect. Since the ten tribes were exiled to Assyria some 2500 years ago and did not return with the later Babylonian Captivity, we Jews are, as stated above, roughly 90% of the tribe of Judah. That is generic historical knowledge; but few families still have family trees which definitively identify their tribe. There are small percentages of every one of the 12 tribes among us (see for example the Talmud, Pesachim 4a), but no one today can say who the approximately 5% are that come from the small remainder of the Ten Tribes that had mixed among the people of Judah before the rest of the Ten Tribes were lost.
