A Treatise of the Six Nation Indians
Complete book on Mohawks, Tuscarora, Onondagas, Seneca, Oneidas, and Cayuga Tribes

As knowledge of the traditions, manners, and national traits of the Indians, composing, originally, the six distinct and independent tribes of the Mohawks, Tuscarora, Onondagas, Seneca, Oneidas, and Cayuga; tribes now merged in, and known as, the Six Nations, possibly, does not extend beyond the immediate district in which they have effected a lodgment, the author has laid upon himself the task of tracing their history from the date of their settlement in the County of Brant, entering, at the same time, upon such accessory treatment as would seem to be naturally suggested or embraced by the plan I have set before me. As the essay, therefore, proposes to deal, mainly, with the contemporary history of the Indian, little will be said of his accepted beliefs, at an earlier epoch, or of the then current practices built upon, and enjoined by, his traditionary faith.

History of the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of Michigan
Here is recorded the earliest history of the Ottawa tribe of Indians in particular, according to their traditions. The author has related where they formerly lived, the names of their leaders, and what tribes they contended with before and after they came to Michigan, and how they came to be the inhabitants of that State. Also the earliest history of the Island of Mackinac, and why it is called "Michilimackinac"--which name has never been correctly translated by white historians, but which is here given according to his knowledge of this matter long before they came in contact with white races.

Also recorded are some of the most important legends, which resemble the Bible history; particularly the legends with regard to the great flood, which has been their language for many centuries, and the legend of the great fish which swallowed the prophet Ne-naw-bo-zhoo, who came out again alive, which might be considered as corresponding to the story of Jonah in the Sacred History.

Beside the author's own personal and family history, he has also, quite extensively, translated the Ottawa language into English and added many other items which might be interesting to all who may wish to inquire into Ottawa history and language.

The Northrup - Northrop Genealogy
Joseph Northrup arrived Boston from England on the Hector and Martha, on July 26, 1637. He was said to be part of a group known as Eaton and Davenport company, the majority of which were farmers from Yorkshire, Hertfordshire, and Kent. After arriving in Boston, the group chose to sail down the coast in search of a good harbor, which they found in New Haven, Connecticut. The company remained there for about a year, after which they joined with Sir Richard Saltonstall's company to form the settlement of Milford, Connecticut, in 1639. Joseph Northrup died thirty years after the settlement of Milford, and forty-four years before the town was granted a Patent.
