Chowanoc


An Algonquian tribe formerly living on Chowan River in northeast North Carolina, about the junction of Meherrin and Nottoway Rivers. They were said to have been a sedentary hunter/farmer tribe who spoke the Powhatan language. In 1584-85, when first known, they were the leading tribe in that region. One village called Ohanoak was said to have 700 warriors. They gradually dwindled away and by 1701 were reduced to a single village on Bennetts Creek. They joined in the Tuscarora War against white settlers in 1711-12, and at its close, the remnant, estimated at about 240, were assigned a small reservation on Bennetts and Catherine Creeks. By 1820 they had been entirely absorbed into the Tuscarora tribe.

Find #49023

Its been a long hot summer in Texas, I've been trying to get out and do a caching trip a couple of times this summer, but it never worked out. Finally managed to get a week off, and am so happy to be out here in Colorado. The weather if perfect, and there is a load of caches that need my name on Smile Thanks so much for the hide mondou2, I really enjoyed finiding this cache!

Still working on a county run. Today I had a few counties in south east Wyoming and across the border into Nebraska to pick up. Then I headed back to Denver for my flight back. I had extra time so I cached around the airport some more picking up a lot of Mondo caches. I signed the logs as FeatheredFriends or as "FF" on the smaller logs to save space. This was my '56th' find for today. Thanks 'mondou2' for a fun time in the area.

Not the best road for making these grabs. Maybe one of these days they'll get done with all the construction around here! Glad I could make the grab quickly. TFTH SL
