1836 Census of Mix Blood Indians of Michigan

SURNAME INDEX In 1836 a census was taken which enumerated the mixed-blood Indian person who resided at Sault Ste. Marie, Mackinac, St. Ignace, and the Grand River Valley of southern Michigan. This census lists 583 persons, providing information on blood quantum, tribal affiliation, location, family relationships and other data. The reason for this census was Article 6 of the Ottawa and Chippewa Treaty of 1836, which provided a cash payment to the half-blood persons based upon certain criteria. In addition to being related by blood to the Ottawa and Chippewa who ceded land in the treaty, the mixed-blood person had to reside within the area ceded. Those persons not living in the area, or living in the area but not related by blood to the Ottawa and Chippewa ceding the land are not listed.
