    3. Further to msg re Indians emigrating from PA to Anadarko. The Delaware of Western Oklahoma are in Anadarko, Oklahoma They moved there basicallyi from Texas after their exodus from the East.. The mainsteam of the Delaware fmoved to Ohio, Indiana, SW Missouri, to Noreast Kansas then to Oklahoma in 1867 where they were placed with the Cherokee. This group is based at Bartlesville OK. They are the Eastern Oklahoma Delaware. Those who remained in Kansas are known as the Kansas (and sometimes "Citizen Delaware" because they became U.S. citizens. They are centered in the Kansas City Kansas area near the old Delaware Preserve. TheWyandot are to the East in Kansas City Kansas and the Shawnee were acoss the Kansas Rive from Kansas ity KS.. The main stream of the Wyandot (Huron) are in Oklahoma, Those who remained in the Kansas City Kansas area are the Wyandot (Hiuron) Nation of Kansas. iThere are also two Delaware nations/tribes who emigrated to Canada. I am not an authority on Delaware History nor on the westward migration and cannot answer questions about genealogy , how to find roll data, etc. This msg is intended only as a brief follow on to the item about the Delaware migrating to Anadarko.
