Tribal series/ group participation

Thanks for everyone's participation so far for this group effort
series. We are already half way to our goal. My goal is for 20 stamps
representing any Native American Indian tribe. The following tribes
have been spoken for: Mohawk, Nipmuc, Pequot, Delaware Nation (Lenni
Lanape), Narragansett, Nanticoke, Choctaw, Salish (Northwest tribes),
Blackfoot, and Creek. Thanks for your participation! Safe trails.

I'm not sure what would be fitting/appropriate on the image. Are the Mohawks the only one of the Hau de no Sau Nee (Iroquois Confederacy) represented? Anyone thinking of taking the Malecite or MicMac?

Hi Dave,
The Micmac are taken. Mohawk only one from the Iroqouis Confederacy. Thanks
for your interest. ( I was wondering if you were going to jump into this:) ).
Let me know. Safe trails.

Well, heck. Sign me up for the Malacite, then - the St. John River tribe. I'll use a Maleseet pictograph - easy enough for a low-level carver like me. Please send me the proper address to mail it to you.

Just a stamp, or other box bits? Logbook? Probably a nice ink. Can pounded quahog shells make a dye? Poutine gravy (for Northern Mainers, y'know...)?

I'm just a newbie but I will try to carve a stamp for the Confederated
tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (Cayuse, Umatilla and Walla Walla
tribes) in Oregon. Is this one already taken? Please let me know if there are any
requirements. Thanks!

Abenaki, please. I just recently went looking into the French (Quebecois) side of the family. My Dad says Marco but the records say Marcoux back to about 1690. Interestingly, when the Marco (Marcoux) came to Vermont c. 1880 they left St. Francois-du-Lac, near Pierreville & Trois Rivieres. This is the actual site of the St. Francis tribe of Abenaki that Roger's Rangers attacked during the early days of the Revolutionary War. See the movie Northwest Passage. As a child I had a sweetgrass sewing basket with lid, a present from my paternal Grandmother who grew up in the Swanton/ St. Albans area of northern Vermont - wish I had it now. It has been so rewarding to be the first back to Vermont c. 1975 after my Grandmother left about 1910.

Thanks for the "memories",
Susan

Are you doing a stamp for the ABENAKi for the series? I hope so. I was
planning to join the group but I just didn't answer in time & it is closed. My
son-in-law has a bit of Abenaki blood and so does my son's partner. They are
both from NH.
