Jessica, could you please change the Native Americans template to the following (inside of double curly parentheses):

Heritage Sticker|ancestors=Native American|imagetext=Tree silhouette

unless he was associated with a specific tribe in which you could use:

Native American Sticker|tribe=Nameoftribe

Notice the inclusion of the word "Sticker".

Let me know if you have any questions. Many thanks.
