people were an Iroquois group that migrated west to the Ohio
River Valley in the mid-eighteenth century 1850s and formed
their own distinct identity their. This conflicted, however,
with the hordes of white settlers, who vied with them for
control of the region, and a series of battles ensued, with the
Mingo led by Chief Logan . Despite some pockets of resistance,
the Mingo were crushed, and the surviving members of the group
mixed with the larger Shawnee[?] peoples. The Mingo were finally
defeated by the United States and forced to move to a
reservation in the west. All Wikipedia text is available under
