The SCOOP: Land grant verifies Henry Berry Lowrie as Tuscarora and more!

 

This is a reason to rewrite history books: The facts have been verified and there are only 4k to 5k indigenous Natives in Robeson County, North Carolina.

Robeson County, North Carolina's Tuscaroras descent from aboriginal tribes is a fact of life and the research will stand the test of time.

The Tuscaroras of Robeson County are the same referenced as Katteras by the earliest explorers and as Croatan by The Lost Colonists.

Croatan was adopted by white democrats to obtain federal funding for the local natives to have their own school. 

Under the 1956 Lumbee Act, the Croatan name was changed to Lumbee. 

There are over 65k people enrolled in the Lumbee Tribe which is state identified and they are eligible for HUD assistance and other economic relief programs. 

But ---

Tuscarora pedigree charts indicate there are only 4k to 5k indigenous NC Tuscarora today.

Tuscaroras are identified in federal documents, letters and logistically their historical presence as the primary traders extends from Canada into the border of Florida.

The first land grants to Croatans is dated 1732 to Henry Berry and James Lowrie in Robeson County.

Tuscarora pedigree charts include the 1992 Lumbee Chairman’s parents and grandparents and Henry Berry Lowry’s descendants Leola Locklear and Sarah Kearsey.

These facts of life cannot be ignored – there are only four or five thousand, at the most, aboriginal Natives in Robeson County, North Carolina.

The research is indisputable, and a lot of it is in “The Exsanguination of the Second Society.”

Read it - if you dare to face the facts.

A good book teaches us something, gives us a viewpoint we hadn't pondered and stays with us. It's is like a surprise we are expecting but we just don't know what it is.
