The following are the better known Seneca towns, which, of course, were not at all contemporary. </p> <table><tr><td>Canadasaga <br /> Canandaigua<br /> Caneadea <br /> Catherine'sTown<br /> Cattaraugus <br /> Chemung<br /> New Chemung<br /> Old Chemung<br /> Chenango <br /> Cheronderoga<br /> Chinoshageh <br /> Condawhaw <br /> Connewango<br /> Dayoitgao <br /> Deonundagae <br /> Deyodeshot<br /> Deyohnegano <br /> Deyonongdadagana<br /> Dyosyowan <br /> Gaandowanang <br /> Gadaho<br /> Gahato</td> <td>Gahayanduk<br /> Ganagweh<br /> Ganawagus<br /> Ganeasos<br /> Ganedontwan<br /> Ganogeh<br /> Ganondasa<br /> Ganos <br /> Ganosgagong<br /> Gaonsagaon <br /> Gaousge<br /> Gaskosada<br /> Gathtsegwarohare<br /> Geneseo<br /> Gistaquat<br /> Gwaugweli<br /> Honeoye<br /> Joneadih <br /> Kanagaro (3) <br /> Kanaghsaws<br /> Kaunassarago<br /> Kashong</td> <td>Kaskonchiagon <br /> Kaygen<br /> Keinthe<br /> Newtown<br /> Oatka <br /> Ongniaahra<br /> Onnahee<br /> Onoghsadago<br /> Onondarka<br /> Owaiski<br /> Sheshequin<br /> Skahasegao<br /> Skoiyase<br /> Sonojowauga<br /> Tekisedaneyont <br /> Tioniongarunte<br /> Tonawanda<br /> Totiakton<br /> Tsonontowanen<br /> Yorkjough<br /> Yoroonwago</td> </tr></table> <ul><li> <p><b>Additional Seneca Indian Resources</b></p><ul><li> <p><b><a href="https://accessgenealogy.com/native/seneca-tribe.htm"> Seneca Indian History</a></b></p></li> <li> <p><b> <a href="https://accessgenealogy.com/native/seneca-indian-tribe-clans.htm">Seneca Indian Clans</a></b></p></li> <li> <p><b> <a href="https://accessgenealogy.com/native/seneca-indian-towns-and-villages.htm">Seneca Indian Towns and Villages</a></b></p></li> <li> <p><b> <a href="https://accessgenealogy.com/native/seneca-indian-chiefs-and-leaders.htm">Seneca Indian Chiefs and Leaders</a></b></p></li> </ul></li> </ul> The books presented are for their historical value only and are not the opinions of the Webmasters of the site. <em>Handbook of American Indians, 1906</em> <p><b><a href="/"> Index of Tribes or Nations</a></b>
I am trying to find out information about my Grandmother. She was born Feb 4, 1903. Her name was Mary Elizabeth The only information I have is that she was born to a Seneca Indian mother who died and so her father adopted the children out – because he was not able to care for them. Mary Elizabeth was adopted by Henry and Nettie Swarteslander in Franklin, Pennsylvania. I have not been able to find her birth name – or parents names. Any help is appreciated.
