Ancestry of Angelina Jolie

compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner


The following material on the immediate ancestry of Angelina Jolie should not be considered either exhaustive or authoritative, but rather as a first draft.

Note that no evidence has (yet) been found to support the claim that Angelina Jolie's mother, Marcheline Bertrand, had Iroquois (or any other Native American) ancestry.

It's not clear why someone born in New York would have an immigration year,
     but that's what the schedule says.  Also the mother's birthplaces for 
     the children appear to be (tentatively) crossed out and replaced with 
     "N Y"
