In the record
The United States made one treaty or agreement that names Colus as a party: California Treaty I: Camp Colus, Sacramento River, 1851 (unratified).
The records group it with Patwin. Today, Cachil DeHe Band of Wintun Indians of the Colusa Indian Community of the Colusa Rancheria, California carries this history, as their own pages or research records say.
Written from the records linked here; open any of them for its sources. This is what the United States’ treaty record says, not the nation’s own account.
