The Allegheny Nation Indian Communtiy Center (Ohio Band) was started in 1979 at which time they filed "an Intent" to petition..if you would like in the records that we are # 60 on that list.... we never got an actualy petition filed.  The Allegheny Lenape group was started a few years back... we are the same people....but the Allegheny Lenape... branched off from us and started their own group...
The Allegheny Nation is still going strong... we are located in Newcomerstown, Ohio... PO  Box 431...Newcomerstown, Ohio  43832.. Execurtive Director is Arthur Kennedy...if you want more information....
The petition that was filed in 1979 was done by the "allegheny nation"  also the  state recognition was done by "the allegheny nation" and was sent to a representative "kirk shuring" which did nothing with it... and then later.. the Allegheny Lenape Group took the petition to this other representative...Rep Mauir I believe... and it was approved..if you check your records...also.. since we are the same group the "allegheny nation" was also recognized through the state.
