TUSCARORA

This article appears in Volume V27, Page 486 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: TUM-VAN
TUSCARORA , a tribe of North American Indians of Iroquoian stock. Their former range was on the Neuse river, North Carolina. Here in 1700 they lived in fifteen villages and were estimated at 6000. In 1711, as a protest against the encroachments on their territory, they declared war on the white settlers. After two years they were defeated and fled north to the Iroquois, in whose famous league they became the
sixth
  nation, settling on the territory of the
Oneida
  Indians, in New
York
  state. In the War of American Independence some of the tribe fought for the English and some against them. The remnant of them is divided between reservations in Canada and New
York
 , and numbers about 700.
