| Bio notes | The Chickahominy (“Coarse Ground Corn People”) were an Algonquian-speaking tribe based in the Tidewater area of eastern Virginia. They interacted with the English Jamestown settlement throughout the 17th century, first as allies and later as displaced enemies in the Anglo-Powhattan war, which concluded with the Treaty of 1646 and a new territory in the Pamunkey Neck area. In 1677 the tribe moved to the Mattaponi River, and after losing title to their reservation lands in 1718 either merged with the neighboring Pamunkey or began to finally settle at Chickahominy Ridge, only a few miles from the original homeland. This area became fairly developed by 1820, with standing homes and an established church. |
