Native American genealogy research from the Piedmont of NC & VA
Some Blackfoot/Blackfeet links. I am not sure which of the 3 this group is:

Those links are all concerning the Algonquin Siksika Blackfoot of Montana. In general, any mainstream or academic reference to the Blackfoot will be talking about them. They’re the “regular” Blackfoot. We’re the “other” Blackfoot there’s so much controversy about. We’re from back east, stemming from VA/NC, radiating out mostly through Appalachia and the Midwest (though a few took a southerly route) and were apparently dispersed mostly in the mid 1700’s to very early 1800’s (though more than a few remained in place). We believe the ID is a marker for one or an amalgam of the Siouan tribes of the Piedmont.
