I got this list from another person and can't verify the source of the information at this time. So I can't comment
on the accuracy of the information. I have not attempted to correct the spellings of any names or places listed. So
you can see what kind of trouble we run into with Native American names. There are obviously mistakes in the spelling
of some of the places, (s) added on the end sometimes. You will also find the same name given to many different persons
, some from the same town and the same time period, another problem we run into...Names were not that important to
Native Americans especially English names given to them by the "whites". They would often change their names or switch
the order of their name around ie: John Edward Smith could become Edward John Smith. And it depended on who they were
talking to. One person would know them by one name and another person would know them be a completely different name
and the name they gave any Government people would be another name.
