I went through something simular to this a few years ago…my cousin ended up going to africa and looking through the library archives to discover the truth about our family history (i’m 1/4 white, kind of obvious when you look at me to tell that i have some european in me, but it’s not so obvious in my mom…and nobody really wants to claim that side of their ancestry in africa)…

It will be especially hard for you, since you don’t know the tribe (so that can’t narrow down the search)…but do you know her full name, including her maiden name? There might be old marriage licenses that you can go through…and also do you know the state she was originally from?.. I just did a search, www.ancestory.com and www.geneology.com seem to be pretty good. PM me if you want more help…
