I can not find any record of an Indian reservation in PA. Also, Cherokee were not really from this area. The Cherokee were from the Carolina area. The Cherokee were forced on to reservation in Oklahoma ( The Trail of Tears). The tribes in PA were the Delawares (Lenni Lenape), Iroquois Confederacy, and Shawnees. This is from the book "Indians of Pennsylvania" by Paul A.W. Wallace. The book is from the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission. Ed, I need to go back and re read ( re find it first ) but I do recall that the Cherokee were in the region in the 1700s. This surprised me as I thought they were further south and west. The Deleware ( as you so rightly put it the Lenni Lenape ) were also in the area as were a number of other tribes too. Laurence
