interview with Nancy Garcia

Hi Jessica, I am a Great Great X 8 Grandchild of Sampson Occum. I am part Brothertown Indian. Although I am a Narragansett by Federal Recognition, I come from 8 of the earliest Sachems first mentioned in American history. I am the Cheif Deputy Historic Preservation Officer for NIT. I am also Chair of the National Algonquian Indian Council. I think I can help with records from tbe Council, so that is the title I will operate under. Let me know what I can do to help. 4014635043 leave name and number if I am not home. Nancy
