Massachusetts Bay Colony...
The Pilgrims were SUPPOSED to land in North Carolina...
They were blown hundreds of miles off course
Each time they tried to sail south, the winds kicked up again
As it turns out, that was the ONLY place they could have landed on the entire Atlantic coast...
When the Pilgrams came ashore...
They were greeted in ENGLISH, by "a savage" named Samoset. Then, later by a man named Tis-quan-tum, who spoke at least three languages and had lived in Europe, he came to see who was camping on his famille's land...
Tis-quan-tum was the son of the chief of the Pokanokets ( Pauquunaukit, anglicized as Pokanoket, literally, "land at the clearing" in Natick) but, had been abducted in 1614 as a teenager by an unscrupulous sea captian named Thomas Hunt. Thomas sailed into Plymouth harbor, lured 20 Indians ( including Tisquantum.[43]) aboard his vessel under promise of trade, then set sail for Málaga, Spain near the Straits of Gibraltar, where he sold as many as of the indians as he could into slavery.
Fortunatly, local "Friers (sic) of those parts" discovered what he was doing, and took the remaining Indians to be "instructed in the Christian Faith; and so disappointed this unworthy fellow of his hopes of gaine".[48] Prowse asserts that [Tisquantum] spent four years in slavery in Spain and was then smuggled aboard a ship to Newfoundland.[50] Smith attested that Tisquantum lived in England "a good time" [51] Plymouth Governor William Bradford recorded that he lived in Cornhill, London with "Master John Slanie".[52]
1619 - Tis-quan-tum was in Newfoundland "with Captain Mason Governor there for the undertaking of that Plantation".[53] Thomas Dermer and Tisquantum talked of New England and persuaded him that Dermer that he could make his fortune there. Dermer wrote Ferdinando Gorges and requested that Gorges send him a commission to act in New England.

Dermer and Tisquantum sailed down the New England coast to Massachusetts Bay, ...where they discovered that all inhabitants of Tisquantum's villiage (near Patucket) had died. They then moved inland to the village of Nemasket, and Dermer sent Tisquantum[55] on ahead to the village of Pokanoket near Bristol, Rhode Island, to meet with Chief Massasoit of the the Wampanoag confederacy. A few days later, Massasoit arrived at Nemasket along with Tisquantum and 50 warriors.
In June 1620, Demer discovered that the Indians there now bore "an inveterate malice to the English"... Dermer wrote that "Squanto cannot deny but they would have killed me when I was in Nemask, had he not entreated hard for me."[56]
Some time after this encounter, Indians attacked Dermer and Tisquantum and their party on Martha's Vineyard, where Dermer received "14 mortal wounds in the process".[57] He fled to Virginia where he died. Nothing more is known of Tisquantum's life until he appears to the Pilgrims in Plymouth Colony 1620-22
The Potawatomi teach their children about the "Seven Grandfather Teachings" - French records, suggest that in the early 17th century, the Potawatomi lived in what is now southwestern Michigan. Tribes of the Great Lakes region: Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi, who spoke Algonquian languages, and the Huron, who spoke an Iroquoian language. They had long been allied with French habitants with whom they lived, traded, and intermarried… (Red, White & Blue circles)
In the late 18th century, they were pushed to the west by European/American encroachment and removed from their lands in the Great Lakes region to reservations in Oklahoma.
Fox River Potawatomi…
1830, many the "First Nations" tribes escaped to Canada. However, a small band of Potawatomi Indians moved west, and ”early treaties gave them land grants near Chicago and in a region known as Platte country Missouri”...
Literally, the people who had the LEGAL title to the land of ZION were the Potawatomi indians, who had been in Iowa for a little more than five years…
The Potawatomi Indians are part of that got pushed out of their traditional lands … and ended up in Missouri/Nauvoo by “coincidence”...
2 Nephi 3:11 - Algonquin Bible + Joseph Smith served his mission to the "Sauk, Fox and Patowatame indians"
Sections 78:15, D&C 107:53; 116:1 and 117:8 & 11
The people who had LEGAL title to the land of ZION in 1830 were the Potawatomi (Algonquins)
This fact sheds new light on verses 55, 58, 71 when the Lord tells JS to "gather up the residue of my people" and "go get my vineyard back".
Go get the legal land owners, and stand united with them...
The final step followed the Treaty of Chicago, negotiated in 1833 for the tribes by Caldwell and Robinson. In return for land cessions, the US promised new lands, annuities and supplies to enable the peoples to develop new homes.
Many Potawatomi found ways to remain, primarily those in Michigan. Others fled to their Odawa neighbors or to Canada to avoid removal to the west.
The Illinois Potawatomi were removed to Nebraska and the Indiana Potawatomi to Kansas, both west of the Mississippi River. Often annuities and supplies were reduced, or late in arrival, and the Potawatomi suffered...
The Potawatomi in Kansas later were removed to Indian Territory, now Oklahoma.
The removal of the Indiana Potawatomi was documented by a Catholic priest, Benjamin Petit, who accompanied the Indians on the Potawatomi Trail of Death. Petit died while returning to Indiana.
Did you notice anything about the “seal” (grapes) of the Potawatomi indians on Pelee Island,...
They also regard Epigaea repens as their tribal flower and consider it to have come directly from their divinity….
March 1, 1845 the council of fifty met in the seventies hall to discuss Joseph smiths suggestion that "the council seek out a location and a home where the saints can dwell in peace and health and where they can the ensign and standard of liberty for the nations and live by the laws of god without being oppressed and mobbed under tyrannical governments without protection from the laws”
Joseph Smith approved a plan for enlisting the indians to help build the kingdom of god - in this regard the cherokee and choctaw had already requested an interview with the elders of the church
James Emmett and Lyman Wight took steps to carry out Joseph Smiths plans to find a resting place among the Lamanties by taking two companies into Indiana territory.
The council added several people... among the number was Lewis Dana an Oneida Indian, who traveled several hundred miles to Illinois with his wife and daughter to visit the Mormons. The native styled himself as “an Interpreter of six tribes,” whom he confidently predicted would “receive the work.” He himself did, being “joyfully” baptized in May 1840. Mr. Dana is believed to have been the first lamanite who has been admitted a member of any quorum of the church. Lewis and his wife Mary Gont were at the heart of the Mormons' Lamanite effort for the next decade.
~ 40 Indians visited in mid-May
When the US government broke these treaties, and forced the Potawatomi from Missouri, 1,450 members of this Potawatomi tribe migrated from Missouri to council bluffs iowa… before Brigham and the saints went there, after being driven out.
April 11, 1844 - “Sacs and Foxes, Sioux's and Potawatomies, were consulted, and their assent obtained previous to the …crowning of the King. These delegations of Indians were seen by hundreds and hundreds at Nauvoo, but the object of their visitation never was ascertained”
Just one month and four days after his visit with these Sac (Sauk) and Fox Indians Joseph smith was assassinated.
Prior to his assaniation, Smith reportedly prophesied to Brigham Youn and other leaders, “You will yet be called upon to go the “strongholds of the Rocky Mountains,” Smith predicted. “You will gather the Red Man.. . from their scattered and dispersed situation to become the strong arm of Jehovah.” At that time, he continued, the Lamanite would become “a strong bulwark of protection from your foes.”

The Pottawatomi /ˌpɑːtəˈwɑːtəmiː/,[1] also spelled Pottawatomie and Potawatomi(among many variations), are a Native American people of the Great Plains, upper Mississippi River, and western Great Lakes region. They traditionally speak the Potawatomi language, a member of the Algonquian family. The Potawatomi called themselves Neshnabé, a cognate of the word Anishinaabe. The Potawatomi are part of a long-term alliance, called the Council of Three Fires, with the Ojibwe and Odawa (Ottawa) where they the Potawatomi are considered the "youngest brother" (Bodéwadmi) which means "keepers of the fire" and refering to the council fire of three peoples.
