The famous American humorist, social commentator, actor, and vaudeville performer Will Rogers was apparently 9/32 (just over a quarter) Cherokee according to Wiki. Does he really look that much Amerindian? I don't see it.

"Rogers quipped that his ancestors did not come over on the Mayflower, but they "met the boat"."

On the other hand, the actor Roy Rogers, who is not described as such, looks to maybe have a little, though I don't know. Maybe not.

Maybe Roy Rogers n 2 shows more “exotic” look.
First one looks like a classic 1st half of the XX century white Mexican.

I think his nose looks like a typical Amerindian nose.

Sorry the topic title was supposed to be Will Rogers, I accidentally got them mixed up. I do see the first guy as basically Noric, with maybe quite minor native influences.
