Tuscarora Reservation Map, 1890

The Tuscarora Reservation, established in 1890 in Niagara County, New York, was formed from three tracts acquired over time. The Tuscaroras, originally part of the Iroquois Confederacy, migrated from North Carolina to New York, facing numerous challenges along the way. They cultivated their land, developed extensive orchards, and maintained communal governance. Despite their rich ancestral lands, economic struggles led many to lease farmland to whites. The reservation’s structure and inhabitants are documented, alongside the political leadership of the Tuscarora Nation during that period.
