The Menominee Tribe

The Menominee Tribe's history is unique because our origin, or creation, begins at the mouth of the Menominee River, a mere 60 miles east of our present Menominee Indian Reservation. It is also the Indian tribe of WI. The Menominee are a federally recognized nation of Native Americans, with a 353.89cu sq mi reservation in WI. Their historic territory originally included an estimated 10 million acres in present-day WI and the upper peninsula of Michigan. The tribe currently has 8,700 members.
