Oneidas Cede Land to NY
(by Teresa Morris)

This is a message posted at the Tuscaroras.com discussion forum by Teresa Morris on February 26, 1998.

I'm talking about in 1785....This goes with all the other today's posts. Read them in order of posting.

Follow them in order.

I'm putting this out here and typing this in for those of you having problems accessing NC background information and because some of you have contacted me for information. There is a paper trail.

Hope this helps. I am tired of keying this in and my eyes are about to cross but what the heck, I'll rest better knowing you have it.

Those of you that couldn't give a flying flip about the Tuscarora Migration, Tuscarora War, etc.,and just want to shoot the bull, chit chat...no sweat...this is not for you...so just clic off. (this one)

With the westward bug moving in to check out what lies beyond the bend, the Oneidas at Ft. Harkimer ceded to NY State their lands. This also included the land the Tuscarora was on when they 1st migrated from NC.

A new Tuscarora Village around 1820 was settled along the Niagara River. Some were at Grand River in Canada, some were at Oneida and others in NC.
