In the record
The United States made one treaty or agreement that names Seven Nations of Canada as a party: Seven Nations of Canada at New York (1796).
C. C. Royce’s 1899 schedule records 1 cession of land from Seven Nations of Canada. It came through treaties and agreements.
Today, Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe carries this history, as their own pages or research records say.
