Apparently, Mary Wilhite Rogers’s great-great grandmother was Eu-chi-oote Tassel, and was Cherokee: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LTYR-3Y7
This makes Ellen 1/256 Cherokee.

Ellen’s paternal grandmother
Ellen’s paternal grandfather was Wilbur William Hollman (the son of Julius William Hollman and Ella Kathryn Reese). Julius was the son of August Hollmann, a German emigrant, and Caroline C. Vogt, who was born in Warren, Missouri, to German parents. Ella Kathryn was the daughter of Frederick William Reese and Caroline Henrietta Windmann, both born in Missouri to German parents.
Ellen’s paternal grandmother was Jeanette Hart (the daughter of George S. Hart and Jesse). Jeanette was born in Kansas City, Missouri.
These seem to be two records of Jeanette Hart’s Family:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M8HG-7LH
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XHFD-G3Q
But the information does not match perfectly (the age of the parents and the States where they and Jeanette’s grandparents were born).
The first census (1920) seems more accurate.
