	HISTORICAL REENACTMENT BRANT'S VOLONTEERS
		That winter Brant was forced to retire to Ft. Niagara at the mouth of the Niagara River on Lake Ontario.
		While he was there the safe areas of Onoquaga and Unadilla were destroyed by Rebel Militia.
		Ft. Niagara had become a large refugee camp after Sullivan's raid, and though the British still sent out large raiding forces from this Fort until the end of the war, the Iroquois Confederacy had been effectively broken as a politcial force.

		The ceremony was conducted at Canajoharie by missionary Theophilus Chamberlain*, who described the bride as “a handsome, sober, discreet and a religious young woman.” The Brants had two children, Isaac and Christiana, and lived in a comfortable house at Canajoharie where missionaries labouring among the Iroquois were always welcomed.
		Operating out of Onoquaga (near Binghamton, N.Y.), he made several excursions with his Indian-loyalist band to encourage white resistance, rouse the Indians, and confiscate food.

		After traveling eight miles they again crossed the river; but the water was so deep the troops ferried over in the boats, and going a couple of miles farther, encamped at Onoquaga.
		In 1708, at the settlement of North Carolina, the Tuscaroras had their seats on the upper waters of the Neuse and Tar rivers.
		In consequence of their implacable enmity and continual marauds they were driven out by the white and emigrated northward in 1712, and being of the same generic race as the Iroquois, formed an alliance with them in 1722 and planted towns along the Susquehanna from Onoquaga down and became the Sixth nation in the Confederacy

	Down the Susquehanna to the Chesapeake by Jack Brubaker
		While the Native Americans may have gotten the best of one missionary, they did not survive white settlement.
		By the late 1780s, tribes had abandoned settlements at Cooperstown and at the huge village at Onoquaga (along both sides of the North Branch well downstream at what are now Afton and Windsor).
		For several decades, small groups of Iroquois returned to the Cooperstown area in the summer months to hunt, fish, sell goods to whites, and beg for food.
