Cheroenhaka Nottoway

[NDNQt]

Has anyone heard of these folks? I heard they are trying to get state recognition in Virginia.

I've heard of them........I'm pretty sure if you do a search on the web it should bring up a site that tells about them and the land they are wanting to be recognized. Mostly it seems to be a lot of descendants of the Nottaway (I've got a great great that was Nottaway even!!), and they are trying to bring people back together. Not sure how legit and all it is.......
Be interesting to see what comes of it.

Walt Brown is a very political person. He will do anything for some time on the mic. I know that they split up a couple of years ago, and, some started their own tribe per say. Some even say that they are related to the Meherrin tribe. I just don't know how true that is.

I thinks.. that this is nottaway to incorporate many tribes into one. Is there a way to do this so I can build a casino. I'm from the IzzarawayTobe NdN nation and I'd like recognition too. Help me.

Ki, By the powers vested in me I know proclaim your tribe as POWWOWS.COM recognized - better than state or federal! You now have all the benefits given by powwows.com!

What rights are those? to be called a wannabe at every turn? ROFLMAO!!


Ask Roskerah, he might know more about this group.. Actually I'll just tell him this thread is here...

No relation here! They want people to believe that. . . but no. From what I understand, there are some people (who will remain nameless) that got this "idea" to start this up. Where they are getting their information from from is uncertain. It's unfortunate that some Meherrin members got sucked into this mumbo jumbo and went along with it. Who knows what go through people's minds.

Well just so ya'll know.. Cheroenhaka is the name that the Nottoway have for themselves... Nottoway is the name given to them by their enemies. It's an algonquin word for rattlesnakes...

LQ, I know what and who you are talking about. They just seem to come out of the wood works don't they. It will be interesting to see if they actually get it.
