Position:Home>Genealogy> Name the largest Indian tribe still organizing.?


Question:If you mean the largest tribe in the US, it was Cherokee according to the 2000 Census.

Remember, though the census is self-reported and some folks don't report what they want to keep private. They could select "Native American" and not designate a tribe (79% of respondents did this) and they could also select several tribes, if they wanted.

Organizing what? If you mean a tribe that's trying to gain recognition, it's probably the Lumbee in NC.
