Question:

I would like to know what tribes were indigenous to the eastern PA/NJ area?

I'm 1/4 native american with no knowledge of my heritage except for a few old pics and rugs


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You may like to google some history about Joseph Brant (Thayendanegea), Mohawk. They raided settlers down in the minisink and the wyomee (Wyoming) now and again, killed off occasional ancestors & kin of mine. Also around, here are some names you can google: Seneca Cayuga Housatonic Miami Iroquois Six Nations

All that will be meaningless to YOUR family history without the basics of family history research.
