Elvis was mixed raced, although he was born in Eat Tupelo, Mississippi, The United Sates of America.

He was German, Scottish, French, Scots-Irish and Cherokee Indian

"The Legendary rock n roll singer's ancestry has been researched by many. A researcher on Elvis's ancestry discovered that the Presley name originated from Scotland when a man named Andrew Presley moved to America in the 1700s. In addition to this, German, French, (on his mothers side) and Cherokee also make up his heritage.

His great-great-great grandmother was said to be a full blooded Cherokee. A site listed below states that his maternal great grandmother was said to be a Jewish woman."
