On Saturday, the Occaneechi Band of the Saponi Nation celebrated the rededication of the Occaneechi replica village in Hillsborough.
Located along the Riverwalk, the site is a reconstruction of a 17th century Occaneechi village and is near where the tribe had a village 300 years ago, according to the Visit Hillsborough website.
Members of the Occaneechi Band of the Saponi Nation began construction of the replica village in the late 1990s, led by John “Blackfeather” Jeffries.

That is amazing. So eager to learn about my ancestors. My Dads father was very proud, but he died fairly young. Excited about knowing more. Thanks for the information
