    1. Re: [NJMONMOU] order of the Redmen
    2. Hi, I don't know much about this group except that my grandfather was a member in Keyport in the 1920s. I have his dues card which reads that his "hunting grounds" were Keyport, in the "reservation" of New Jersey, the "tribe" was Chingarora and the tribe number was 116. The back of the card has unusual questions and answers which look like they are written in "pseudo-Indian". For example, under the "Questions" section: • Nittah...Is here in distress • Otaupin...Will Tribe be responsible? • Penanuh...Represents himself as a member of your Tribe under the "Answers" section: • Wabum...Tribe is not responsible • Anoka...You are authorized by Tribe to embalm body • Yuma...Benefits commence for first seven suns There are more...in case anyone is interested I'd be glad to send you a scan of the front and back of the card in .jpeg format through an email.
