- Moss Lake Indian lands negotiation files
Series Number
- A0726
Summary
- This series consists of memorandums, correspondence, maps, copies of deeds, newspaper clippings, publications, reports and cassette tapes generated as a consequence of an occupation of state-owned land at Moss Lake (Herkimer County) by a dissident group of Mohawk Indians who rejected the 1797 treaty by which the state acquired title. The Mohawks established a community they called Ganienkeh on the occupied land. Subsequent negotiation, supervised by the Secretary of State, led to the withdrawal of the Indians from Moss Lake and the move of Ganienkeh to two parcels of land in Clinton County.
