- The Mohican History Walking Tour of Stockbridge, MA is comprised of eleven sites along Stockbridge's modern Main Street that once were called home by members of the Stockbridge-Munsee Community of the Mohican Tribe. Members of the Stockbridge-Munsee Community continue to return here.
Loved this video. My maternal grandmother was from Housatonic..
Mohican Nation I got lots of love for you and your music in your culture I love Native American nations
Glad I watched this. Each person had a different valuable perspective on the history. As we approach the 2022 birthday of our nation, it is good to honor the military service provided, past and present, by members of the Mohican tribe. It is also good to honor resilience and faithfulness present in those who make a pilgrimage back to Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
Very well done. Thanx for sharing.
Hello to the Micmac and Mohecan's. From your sister Cree. We have a rich history. And a proud one.
Thanks for your narration.Love you very much my people.
My sister shared this with me. We are researching our heritage and believe we may have relatives in the Stockbridge Brotherton tribe. We have a history in Wisconsin and northern Illinois. I'm glad to have seen this.
There are many of us researching our lost Roots. Brotherstown would include the "Other" Mohicans the Mohegans that were in Fort William Henry when Montcalm attacked. Do not forget the Munsee also went to Canada on the Thames near Moravian town where Tecumseth fell in battle. There are still there.
It's so wonderful to learn the true history here. We weren't taught this in school. Thank you for sharing this. ❤️
A visit to Stone Church at Dover Plains NY led me to research this video about the Stockbridge Munsee community.
I enjoyed this video very much as I learned a lot about the trials and tribulations of this nation and of their strengths, courage, intelligence and will to preserve their heritage. Wonderful job on this! Thank-you!
More people need to watch this and understand that all Native Tribes are a disenfranchise yet powerful people.
The history of Marshfield, Vermont states that the tribe owned the 25,000 town and sold it before moving to New York. They should have kept it, good farm land and forest.
At minute 32, a Mother of the Mohican Men and Women talks of "... being back to the (sacred) Place where We 'lost' Our HomeLand (Our Mother'sLand and Our Father'sLand)..."
The Land hasn't been "lost"; It is still..., Right there. The Land has been "stolen". The Land was not 'lost'; It was taken.

I think she was being polite. She well understood their land was taken from them....on multiple occasions. I found it interesting that they were forced to assign/grant plots of land to each tribal member and the tactic enabled the Americans to chip away at one piece after another and, in time, take them all from the Mohicans. A total shame.
Live in Hopkinton, Mass. There was a "Praying Indian" Town within the Plantation of 'Hopkinton' - Colonial British Land Grant to Harvard College. Originally the intention was that the entire Plantation Grant was to be settled by Christianized Native Americans. This was sized down to a Settlement which became very successful. The King Phillip War changed that. There was never any effort to return these people to their lands once the Anglos stole it. Most were loyal to the Crown, but the Colonials initiated elimination and removal Policies which became the norm once they Rebelled against Britain and formed their new America.

MUH HEOKAWN MEANS "MY PEACE" IN WHAT LANGUAGE TRYING TO BE ERADICATED IN EUROPE ? I HAVE USED PHONETIC SPELLING AS TO SPELL IT WITH THE SILENT LETTERS THE QUESTION WOULD BE YOO EASY WOULD IT OT ?
America does not deserve as good and loyal people as yourselves. Your people are our people. Mohegan/Mix the cousins of Samson Occom in Brotherstown. My people remained Loyalists knowing what was about to befall your people. The Mason Land Claim case had been raging with us for decades in courts. When law failed they resorted to trickery. What if I told you that George Washington sent your tribal people to their deaths in the Battle in the Bronx. That they knew that outcome was assured as the American Revolutionaries knew their Bible. They knew how King David caused the Death of the Hittite married to Bathsheba because he wanted her. For the Americans they wanted your land. So when they sent Stockbridge Indians against the British in the Bronx NY, they retreated leaving Ninham and his warriors ALONE against the Toughest Indian Fighters in the World Rogers Rangers (By then called The Queens Rangers as Rogers had retired) The Same unit they had fought with against the French! The outcome predictable. Why dont you talk about the Munsee and Delewares that came to Canada and stood with Techumseth at the battle of the Thames ? I can fill in some blanks, like how the Mohegans became known as the Mohicans at fort William Henry. Or how the man Ninham shot Sir John Graves Simcoe put an end to slavery in Canada because he survived to be captured at Yorktown and watch his Black or Indian Soldiers be sold into slavery rather than be Prisoners of War. We survived it all.
