	New York - MSN Encarta
		From their base in central New York the Iroquois extended their domain, and during the 17th century they subdued almost all the tribes in a vast region extending from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River and from the St. Lawrence River to the Tennessee River.
		Sometime in the early 1700s, the Tuscarora, an Iroquoian tribe that had migrated to New York from North Carolina, were formally admitted to the confederacy, and the name of the league was changed to the Six Nations.
		In 1603 the northern boundaries of present-day New York were explored by Samuel de Champlain and a party of French fur traders.

	Tuscarora Indian Tribe History
		Although the Tuscarora were regarded as mild, kind, peaceable, ingenious, and industrious, they were speedily brutalized by the vices of the colonists with whom they came in contact; their women were debauched by the whites, and both men and women were kidnapped to be sold into slavery.
		Blunt's Tuscarora were to destroy the hostiles who had taken part in the massacre and to deliver hostages for their own good behavior-this arrangement was to continue only until the new year.
		It was while the Tuscarora deputation was in North Carolina that the remnant of the tribe still residing there was brought to the north and joined their brethren in New York state.

	New York State breaks off negotiations (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The State of New York today, in a move contrary to the wishes of the Mohawks, and of the Federal Judge hearing the case, broke off negotiations for a settlement of the Mohawk land claim in Northern New York.
		At New York's request, the Mohawks were negotiating to settle that claim as a part of the overall land claim settlement.
		New York's decision to terminate settlement talks appears to be motivated in part by a recent Supreme Court decision in "The State of Florida vs. Seminole" granting states broad sovereign immunity from lawsuits.

	Facts for Kids: Tuscarora Indians (Tuscaroras)
		Yes, the Tuscarora tribe became a member of the Iroquois League, or Kanonsionni in their own language ("league of clans.") The other member nations were the Mohawk, the Seneca, the Oneida, the Cayuga, and the Onondaga.
		Tuscarora longhouses were up to a hundred feet long, and each one housed an entire clan (as many as 60 people.) Here is a photograph of an Iroquois longhouse, and here is a drawing of what a longhouse looked like on the inside.
		In times of war, Tuscarora men often shaved their heads except for a scalplock or a crest down the center of their head--the style known as a roach, or a "Mohawk." Sometimes they would augment this hairstyle with splayed feathers or artificial roaches made of brightly dyed porcupine and deer hair.

	Tuscarora Fishing rights
		The court acknowledges the Tuscarora’s hunting and fishing rights under the rights of the Seneca, but the court in my opinion, is incorrect when it says it divested them of their rights under the treaty of 1797.
		Comparing land rights of New York Tribes to that of Tribes in other states is like comparing apples to oranges; yes apples and oranges are fruits, but they are totally different types of fruit.
		As it applies to New York tribal land, the status of those rights remained the same, as they always had been since time immemorial, despite the conveyance of the land because the rights were reserved to them.

	Tuscarora Chapter NSDAR (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The Tuscarora Chapter was organized on October 12, 1895, in Binghamton, New York.
		"Tuscarora" was selected for our Chapter name because the 6th Nation of the Iroquois chose the confluence of the Chenango and Susquehanna rivers (where Binghamton is situated) and the valleys nearby for their villages.
		The Tuscarora, along with the Oneida, were the only members of the Iroquois confederacy who chose to fight with the colonists against the British in the War for Independence; therefore it seemed appropriate to adopt the name of the Native Americans who were the original lords of this soil.
