the mark of Josoph Robon
Joseph Robin, Nipmuc. At home at Chaubunagungamaug (present day Webster, Massachusetts) and Hassananamisco (present day Grafton, Massachusetts). Joseph Robin was the son of Petuhansit, or Old Robin, and is known to have switched allegiances during King Philip’s War, from informing for the Colonizers to joining Metacom and fighting against them.
Joseph Robin’s mark appears here, with other Nipmuc signers, on an agreement to the sale of land between Hassanamisco and Magunkaquog. Magunkaquog is the place now occupied by towns lying between Grafton and Natick, including Ashland and Westborough.
Document is undated. Seen at the Massachusetts State Archives.

[ OTHER INDIGENOUS LANGUAGE AWARENESS CHALLENGE POSTS]
Here is another IYIL post, this week on Nipmuc (I couldn’t find a word for the language in Nipmuc).
Basic Information
The Nipmuc language is very closely related to all the languages that I’ve looked over before for this challenge. While there is no confirmed historical attestion of it, a language called “Loup A” from a French priest’s 18th century manuscript is generally agreed to likely be Nipmuc. However, listening to people involved in revitalization efforts, it seems like there is a fairly continuous tradition of the language up to the modern day (so it’s never been dormant). It is spoken in Central Massachusetts down into northern parts of Connecticut and Rhode Island, but the main locations where it’s spoken are around Grafton/Natick/Worcester.
Modern History
By the end of the 19th century, much of the Nipmuc land that had continued in their possession was sold or broken up by the Massachusetts government, with the only exception being the Hassanamisco Reservation (fun fact: this is the only reservation in Massachusetts to never have been owned or occupied by non-Native people, which says a lot about how bad colonization was here). Many Nipmuc intermarried with Black people, and the two communities had close ties, with Nipmuc enclaves in Worcester often being within Black neighborhoods. Nipmuc traditions were maintained and people continued to meet at the Hassanamisco Reservation, which was a center for cultural and social life. The Cisco family of Hassanamisco became tribal leaders, and in the 1920s they began getting involved, along with members other New England nations, in advocacy and attempts at recognition and reparations. In the 1930s, leader Sarah Cisco asked the Massachusetts legislature for pensions for Nipmuc people and to maintain the Hassanamisco Reservation, as well as the return of Lake Ripple to Hassanamisco possession, something which was only gained later on under the leadership of Zara Cisco Bough. In 1976 the Hassanamisco Nipmucs were recognized by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Chaubunagungamaug Band, descendants of the inhabitants of the Dudley Praying Town (modern-day Dudley, MA and Webster, MA), reacquired lands that had been sold off in the 19th century, creating a 10-acre reservation, and were incoporated in 1981. They are also recognized by Massachusetts. A third group, the Natick Massachusett, also have state recognition, although members are of mixed Massachusett and Nipmuc descent. None of the groups have federal recognition.
Linguistic Revitalization
Linguistic revitalization has been taking place, although I'm not sure to what extent it’s being taught and how many people are taking part in the revitalization. I did find an article about the teaching of the language, which gives some idea, and there is a website with lessons and classes, so there are definitely things happening. The language was also used in a PBS documentary (?), and here is a video talking about the language consulting for the film.
Support the project!
You can donate to the Nipmuc Nation here (scroll down to the blue “Donate” button).
I’ll be back next week with Narragansett!

Indigenous people of Massachusetts.
Massachusetts today houses the Chappaquiddic tribe of the Wampanoag, Abenaki, Hassanamisco Nipmuc, and Mashpee Wampanoag. These tribes stem from three major tribes that use to control the whole region of Massachusetts- the Mohican, Mohegan, and Wampanoag. Out of the six tribes I listed only one tribe has been federally recognized, The Wampanoag tribe. In 1974 the Wampanoag tribe went through a lawsuit, saying that the town of Mashpee took there ancestries homeland, about 3,000 acres of land. The tribe failed in the lawsuit, but in 2001 they retired for the lawsuit, and they were acquitted in 2007 and was given federal recognized. As for the other tribes they are still around but was not granted their homeland. These tribes have mobilized online serves, that tells brief historical facts about how the tribe come to be; as well as, what they are doing today. As an example, The Chappaquiddic, a direct descendant to the first tribe of Massachusetts, was first recorded by the English colonial in 1643. This tribe was known as one of the people of the bay, for living near the ocean. All the tribes near the ocean were known as the pokanokets. If you are interested in supporting tribe like the Chappaquiddic, you join support groups like the North American Indian Center of Boston, which there mission is to “empower the native American community with the goal of improving the quality of life of indigenous people”. Personally, I have experiences with in my house hold, helping support groups, my mom was part of a Delawarean group when she was in college. I would like to learn more about her experiences, and maybe turn it in to a tumbler post.

Sarah Burnee. Hir Mark. 
Nipmuc. Her homelands and homeplace at Hassanamesit, in present-day Grafton, Massachusetts. Sarah was daughter of Sarah Muckamaug and Fortune Burnee (Nipmuc and Black, respectively), and granddaughter of Peter Muckamaug.
In this quitclaim document, Sarah’s brother, Joseph Aaron, is deeding to her, for the sum “one hundred and twenty pounds of lawful money,” a portion of land at Hassanamesit. 
The Muckamaug family was subject to much surveillance by the colonial government of Massachusetts, related specifically to Muckamaug land as Hassanamesit. Information, written by Sophia Ramos (Nipmuc) in the catalog record for the collection that this document comes from, states that “Sarah Muckamug[‘s].... union with an enslaved man called Aaron Whipple would create a decades-long investigation into her relationship in order to contest two of her children's - Sarah Burnee, who was born from...Fortune Burnee; and Joseph Aaron, who was the son of Aaron Whipple and born out of wedlock - claims to her inheritance.” We can read “inheritance” here to mean land, desired by the State. 
Signed June 4, 1771.
Seen at the American Antiquarian Society.

Momekhue Tray her mark
Nipmuc, identified in this deed for land at Towtaid or so-called Leicester, as an heir or Oraskasco or Oaraskaso, Sachem at Towtaid, and the wife of Phillip Tray.
Phillip Tray “with his wife, Momekhue” sign here with others to exchange an area of land eight miles square, bounded on ….“The most souther most corner upon a littoll pound called paupokquomtok then to a hill cauled wekapekatounow & from there to a litoll hill cauled mossonathues & so unto a great hill caulled Aspomstok…” for “fiften pounds curant monye of Nuengland…” The land exchanged to a group of white settlers from so-called Roxbury, Massachusetts.
Momekhue’s kin: presumably, daughter of Oraskasco, Sachem at Towtaid and sister to Waiwaynom or Wawanom. The surname Tray suggests kinship connections to Nipmucs Thomas Tray (Natick) and John Wompas (Hassanamisco).
Deed signed June 20, 1687. Seen at the American Antiquarian Society.
