Abstract The Delaware are a Native American group consisting of the Lenape, Munsee, and Jersies. The Delaware spoke an Algonquian language. Their aboriginal territory was in the vicinity of what is now known as the Delaware River in the states of New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. This file contains 19 documents that describe the Delaware during the colonial period of American history, and their subsequent migration to Oklahoma and Ontario during the 17th to mid-20th centuries.
