Interesting information from Carole, that I thought you would all find informative. I hope Carole doesn't mind? Lori <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Hi! I believe a sachem is an elder within the tribe. It's a respected person, perhaps even their chiefs. Each tribe sent a representative (respected person of authority). There were many tribes in Western, PA. I'm part Mohawk and my mother/grandmother always said that my gg grandmother was an "Indian Princess" too and that her father was the chief of the tribe. She was born in the Bristoria, PA (Greene County) area. Carole Clarke LJSLumpy@aol.com wrote: Hi Fuchs / Fox Clan, Someone had asked about an Indian married to a Fox? Thanks for that information, Lori. You know my interest in the Indian Princess, since it is in my line. I wonder if anyone out there is familiar with early PA history. In the introduction to the book History of Greene County, PA by Rev. William Hannah, there is a description of the early and purchases by Wm Penn in the creation of the original colony. While the famous "Elm Tree" treaty with the local Indians, the Leni-Lenapi (of the Delaware nation, is mentioned, this book says that Penn confirmed his contract with the Sachems and their tribe under the "Elm Tree" at Sackamaxon" now Kensington (Philadelphia). It seems odd that an Indian princess in the 1700s would have a surname, and I wonder if Emily Sac, who is listed as Joseph Fox’s first wife may be a shortened name for Sachem--does anyone know the origin of that word, or if that may indeed be correct?

Hello, Do you or does anyone know what other surnames may have been associated with the Indian tribes in Western PA? Do you know in which counties they were located? Do you know if many intermarried with European settlers? thanks!
