Mingo

Mingo was a Native American nation.


History

The Mingo are a group of the Seneca and Cayuga nations that voluntarily removed to Ohio. As such, they are sometimes called the Ohio Seneca.

This group was again and further removed by the United States in the 1830s. The Mingo nation fragmented from here; some emigrated to Canada as a better prospect; other re-integrated with the New York tribe's reservations. The faction that was taken further west suffered gravely through the travel; Crockett delivered a Congressional speech criticizing the administration which was widely reprinted, and arguably dissuaded many other nations from negotiating with the War Department.
