About

John Milton Earle was appointed "Commissioner of the Indians" by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1859.[2] Compiled in 1859, the Earle Report was published in 1861.[3]

Eligibility for citizenship in the federally recognized Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe is determined by direct lineal descent from an ancestor listed on the 1861 Earle Report.[4]

A proclamation from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts acknowledging the Herring Pond Wampanoag Tribe as a state recognized tribe in Massachusetts states that ancestors of the Herring Pond Wampanoag are documented on the Earle Report.[5]
