Dear Susan, My best educated guess would be the Oneida Tribe. Brief background--The Oneida Tribe is a mamber of the Iroquois Confederacy which formed in the 1500's. The Oneidas fought on behalf of the Colonies in the Rev. War and as a result of the war and sorted land deals, many Oneidas moved from New York to settle Canada and Wisconsin. In teh 1820's, Oneidas settled along Duck Creek, about 10 miles from the city of Green BAy. In 1934, the Oneidas formed a constitutional government under the Indian Reorganization Act. The Oneida reservation today includes about 5,000 acres with the pop. on or near the reservation approx. 4,400 tribal members. A person whom may be able to assist you is: Deborah Doxtator, Chairperson Oneida Tribe of Indians of Wisconsin P.O. Box 365 Oneida, WI 54155 You might try posting a query here: http://cgi.rootsweb/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Wi/NativeAmerican Good Luck!!
