Indians in Perquimans County
The library has obtained an interesting magazine article (
dealing with Indians in the Albemarle Sound area. Major
and minor tribes and groups are located and traced from
the first Roanoke colony to their disappearance as iden
tifiable tribes.
Entitled "An Algonquian Ethnohistory of the Carolina
Sound" is a 1944 issue of the Journal of The Washington
Academy of Sciences, the article mentions a variety of In
dian tribes and settlements in the area but reports that the
Perquimans indians were not a bribe, but only some
Yeopim Indians living in what is now Perquimans County.
A copy of this article can be checked out to anyone in
terested in the subject.
