Native American Tribes series.


Wappinger

Originally the tribe was located on the east side of the Hudson River between the Bronx and Rhinebeck extending east to the crest of the Taconic Mountains on the border between New York and Connecticut. Except for a few small groups, most Wappinger had left the lower Hudson Valley by 1760 and settled in western Massachusetts with the Mahican at Stockbridge, the Iroquois in New York, or the Delaware in Pennsylvania. Once numbering around 8.000 in 30 villages, disease and warfare eventually wiped out most of the tribe. One possible group of Wappinger remain in northern New Jersey today -- the Ramapough Mountain Indians (Ramapo Mountain People). With 2,500 members, they have state recognition but were denied federal status in 1993.
