History

• Named after Chief Cornplanter, a significant figure in Onodowaga Haudenosaunee and USA history.
• Originates from the Cornplanter tract within Pennsylvania, the land where the original Allegheny (Ohi:yo) reservation was until the land was destroyed illegally through the construction of the Kinzua dam in 1971, leading to a forced relocation of the people over 2 generations.
