Modern scholarship provides clues to the tribes that are most associated with the northwest Pennsylvania region: the mysterious Eriez, the Seneca, and their parent nation, the Iroquois. JES Scholar-in-Residence Dr. David Frew will present a detailed timeline, outlining the social and spiritual history of the people who lived here before us, and presents some surprising conclusions drawn from both modern historical research and written records of the Jesuits. The discussion will continue into modern times with the formation of the Iroquois Five Nations, the Great Peacemaker, the departure of Chief Joseph Brant to Canada, the establishment of Brantford, Ontario, a discussion of some of that city's most celebrated native citizens, including Tonto, Graham Green, and Robbie Robertson, and the recent takeover of the former Ontario Hydro property just across Lake Erie by the Six Nations of the Grand Reserve.Location: Harborcreek Township Building – 5601 Buffalo Road, Harborcreek, PA 16510
