Talk:Nansemond

Halawa tribe
does anyone out there have any knowledge of this tribe in Halifax, Warren counties, located in the Great state of North Carolina? If so, Please contact me at cloud9x39@yahoo.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cloud9x39 (talk • contribs) 17:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Also spelled Haliwa; there is a Wikipedia article on it, and material available at Googlge search.--Parkwells (talk) 13:20, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Tribe
What language did this tribe speak and was it Algonquian? Badagnani (talk) 18:07, 4 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Scholars don't know for sure, as only six words were recorded, but believe it was likely Algonquian. The Nansemond had territory in the coastal area dominated by Algonquian-language tribes and they were part of the Powhatan Confederacy, mostly Algonguian tribes.Parkwells (talk) 19:48, 24 December 2019 (UTC)

Federal recognition
Because this is a big issue for most Indian nations, I restored this sourced section. Knowing that the state recognizes them, the next question is, does the federal government? Also I restored some other sourced sections that pertain to their history. Everyone has an opportunity to edit.--Parkwells (talk) 13:17, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

History
An unsourced mention in a timeline without footnotes is not a good source for asserting that the Nansemond met English from the Roanoke settlement. This statement needs a better source, preferably one with footnotes. In general, it would be useful to have third-party sources other than the tribe's official website, which is not footnoted.--Parkwells (talk) 18:51, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Incorrect Caption for Nansemond Page Main Picture
The caption reads that the photo was taken in 2007 and gives the impression that its subjects are all Nansemond. This is incorrect as:

2. The gentleman in the middle is Chief Daniel Webster Custalow, deceased March 21, 2003 (See http://articles.dailypress.com/2003-03-23/news/0303230057_1_eagle-s-body-wife-trucking-service)

3. The gentlemen between the two above is former Chief Kevin Branham (https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=chief+branham+monacan).
