Message: [QUOTE="xc84, post: 5010013, member: 1526"] First, I am not a lawyer but here are my thoughts. There are treaties and the parties that formed the treaties still exist. The US Government and the Onondaga Nation. That's different than "an ancestor of mine owned land..." You likely cannot prove you are a legal heir but the Onondaga Nation can prove there is a treaty and maybe that it was violated by one of the parties. The Onondaga nation, as stated in the article, does not want money. It wants land. Some was even turned over by the state (as the article says). I think something reasonable can be worked out.
