	Journal of American Indian Education-Arizona State University
		It is not strictly a reservation, for the Tama Indians bought their lands from whites about the middle of the last century, but the Bureau of Indian Affairs has offices and a school on the settlement.
		At all events, the Tama Indian Settlement has had various aid programs given by well-meaning whites, and it is notable that they are usually programs planned to confer more or less formal economic or educational benefits on Indians rather than to receive them into homes and introduce them to white culture as friends.
		Indians are tied to their parents, their grandparents, and their people even though they may not be practicing their people’s old rites, even though they do not hold to their people’s old values except here and there.

	The Dimery Settlement
		The Dimery Settlement has been largely forgotten by most of Horry County’s citizens, but at one time, during the early decades of this century, it was frequently mentioned in local newspapers, usually with speculation as to the origins of its inhabitants.
		The Indian people raised cotton, corn, and later tobacco, much the same as their neighbors, and participated in community activities such as hog killings, barn raisings, and wood sawings where community members combined their efforts to help individual members of the settlement.
		The Hatchers, Coopers, and Dimerys among the Lumbee Indians of Robeson county, NC, are all connected with the Dimery Settlement.

	HISTORY OF EARLY SETTLEMENT IN COLLIN COUNTY Part I Settlement and Indian Encounters
		Their settlement was broken up by the Indians, and shortly afterward they joined Col. Jack MCGARRAH in making his settlement at old Buckner, afterwards selected as the first county seat.
		During the attack by the Indians, the dogs of the whites ran down and charged them, and all were killed but one, a noble mastiff in defence of their masters.
		No other settlements were attempted during the summer, except WILCOX began a settlement in the northern part of the county, and Co. McGARRAH continued on his place, and that winter his sons in law, Jones and George HERNDON, and Tola DUNN with George McGARRAH, moved out and settled near his place.

	Seger Letter Re. Colony
		The pluck of these Indians has been put to a very severe test by the unfortunate occurrences of two very dry summers, which have destroyed their crops; and by the delay, and so far complete failure, of the Government to pay them the price promised for breaking land.
		The promise made these Indians was that the Government would furnish the wire for the three-strand fence, and break the ground, or pay for having it done, all the Indians would plant and cultivate.
		I have seen white men, who were married to Indian women, bring their Indian families to the Agency to draw their rations and annuities with as much regularity as the most confirmed coffee cooler.

	ME Land Claim (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The Maine Indian land claims case was exceedingly complex and had tremendous social, legal, and economic implications for the State of Maine and its citizens.
		With the settlement, the Houlton Band of Maliseets obtained federal recognition and the Penobscot Indian Nation and Passamaquoddy Tribe continued to be federally recognized, while forging a new relationship with the State.
		The basic principle of the settlement is that all Indians and Indian lands in Maine are subject to state laws to the same extent as other persons and lands in Maine, except that the Passamaquoddy Tribe and the Penobscot Indian Nation are accorded certain rights of self-rule.

	NARRAGANSETT TRIBE V. RHODE ISLAND
		The Settlement Act established a fund with an initial appropriation of $3,500,000 for the purchase of the privately owned lands that were to comprise half of the Settlement Lands.
		The deed transferring the Settlement Lands to the BIA expressly recognized the applicability of state laws conferred by the Settlement Act.9 As things presently stand, the Settlement Lands remain in the hands of the BIA, in trust for the Tribe.
		The Settlement Lands cannot be prosecuted for violating the State’s law against murder, or sued for discriminating against an employee on the basis of sex, or made to comply with zoning ordinances.

	Indian Agroforestry
		By floating the contents of refuse pits from an early 17th century Indian settlement in southwestern New Hampshire, Thomas was able to establish their extensive use of berries and nuts.
		Thus, the "little pines" of the intervals agricultural areas of the Indians would have served the purpose of improving soil fertility in two ways: by the unidentified action of the rhizosphere and by the accumulation of nutrients in the above-ground biomass which could be partially returned to the soil by felling and burning.
		The Indians' use of fire in manipulating successional trends in their environment enabled them to maintain sustainable agro-ecosystems that were very productive of the vegetable and animal foods that the Indians depended upon, particularly on the drier, upland soils.

	Indian Settlement on Coos Bay (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		During the centuries preceding American expansion and pioneer settlement of the western frontier, there was no written record of Indian life along the Oregon coast.
		John Kirkpatrick, leader of the band, later described the Indians as friendly, generous, and hospitable hosts--a report that's consistent with those of the early explorers and traders.
		No one knows for sure how many Indians lived on Coos Bay, but it was a popular and populated area that was also visited regularly by Indians that normally resided farther inland.

	Quinault Indian Nation Settlement Conserves Marbled Murrelet Habitat
		The settlement also ends four years of negotiation stemming from a lawsuit brought by the Quinault.
		The purchase of the easements restricting timber harvests is for conservation of species associated with late successional forest habitat and is a "reasonable and prudent alternative" suggested by the Fish and Wildlife Service's "jeopardy" biological opinion for the marbled murrelet, a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act.
		Also speaking at the ceremony were Tom Sansonetti, Department of Justice Assistant Attorney General for the Environmental and Natural Resources Division; Dave Anderson, Interior's Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs; Edward Damich, Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims; and Alan Front, Senior Vice President of the Trust for Public Land.

	McCluskieganj, an Anglo Indian settlement in Bihar
		McCluskieganj was equated with an Indian 'mooluk' (home/land) but in racially exclusive terms, and loyal to British India even as it sought independence from British patronage.
		Although settlement was thought to liberate Anglo-Indian men from the emasculation of British patronage, it was legitimated in terms of British colonization.
		Indian maternal descent was disembodied at McCluskieganj in two main ways: first, by erasing it in favour of maternal images of India itself, and then seeking to control Mother India and Mother Earth through colonization and domestication; and, second, by identifying Anglo-Indian women as pioneering homemakers within European traditions of colonization.

	Virtual Law Office: Royal Proclamation of 1763
		Settlers from the Thirteen Colonies were anxious to move into the Ohio Valley now that it was free of French influence, but the lands were still in the possession of Indian Nations who were rightly suspicious of 'Yankee' motives and resented their intrusion.
		The lands west of the Appalachian height of land were "reserved" to the Indians as their Hunting Grounds.
		While the Indian Nations governed the Proclamation Territory under their own laws, the Crown also directed that non-Aboriginal fugitives from justice could be pursued and taken within Indian lands.

		John S. Smith, a federal Indian agent and translator who was living in the Indian settlement at the time of the attack, testified to the Congressional Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War about the dispute in March 1865.
		Despite the unambiguous signal of the Indians' peaceful intentions, the soldiers continued to fire their guns and howitzers.

		That is kind of like Christian creationists demanding that all work on fossil human and pre-human forms be prohibited because the book of Genesis says all that there is to say about the origin of humans.
