* Greetings from chilly Montreal!
* I am trying to find out who Donald A. Grinde Jr. and Richard Hill
* are. In 1975 they co-wrote an article titled `Indian historians
* examine the prehistory and history of the Iroquois: problems in
* methodology and records', published in Ontario Archaeology. I'm
* writing a masters thesis (anthropology) on native history from native
* viewpoints, with a focus on Mohawk historians and historical writers.
* Thank you for any help; replies may be sent to me directly.

First, I would try Chief Tom Porter from Mohawk. He's on Akwasasnee and can be
reached there. He'll talk to you if you're sincere about what you're doing. If
not, then he won't talk to you.
Second, non-Indian people often "misinterpret" what was said to them in
a personal interview, and end up writing the "misinterpretation". This is how
my language was butchered the way it was. I suggest you go do some personal
interviews of your own, so that you don't get the "misinterpreted" version.
This would help all Haudenosaunee - receiving the truth.
