Chronology of Treaties and Agreements

1452

Treaty of Cape Mendocino - The foundational agreement establishing recognition of tribal sovereignty, land rights, and trade relationships. This treaty acknowledged the Tribal Nations' inherent sovereignty and established protocols for mutual respect and trade between sovereign nations.

1855

Fort Wright established by Brigadier General Wright, marking the beginning of military presence in tribal lands under questionable jurisdiction.

1856

Mendocino Indian Reservation Treaty - Explicitly acknowledged and protected tribal hemp cultivation and trade as essential to tribal economy. Established formal reservation boundaries and recognized tribal economic sovereignty.

1857

Jurisdictional Violation: Fort Bragg initiated by Superintendent Edmund Beale and Lieutenant Gibson, operating under questionable jurisdiction while representing under the original name "Fort Wright." This established a pattern of jurisdictional overreach.

October 1864

Forced Removal Breach: Fort Bragg falsely claimed abandonment while actually forcing Native American removal and relocation to Covelo. The land should have been returned to tribal control following this forced relocation, violating the principle of land stewardship established in earlier treaties.

May 14, 1869

Original Map of 1856 Mendocino Indian Reservation signed by Sherman Day, reaffirming the legal boundaries and recognition of tribal lands established in the 1856 Treaty.

2010

Chief Geronimo secured 20-year Opportunity Zone designation (Fort Wright AKA Fort Bragg) through County Economic Development Plan for the City of Mendocino, reestablishing legitimate tribal authority over economic development in the region.

PATTERN OF BROKEN AGREEMENTS DECLARATION: The historical record demonstrates a consistent pattern where agreements made with the Tribal Nations were not honored. From the 1452 Treaty of Cape Mendocino through the 1856 Mendocino Indian Reservation Treaty, commitments to respect tribal sovereignty, land rights, and economic autonomy were systematically violated through forced removals, jurisdictional overreach, and failure to honor treaty obligations.

REINSTATEMENT DECLARATION: Based on this documented chronology of broken agreements, the Tribal Nations hereby reinstates all rights, lands, and economic authority established in the 1452 Treaty of Cape Mendocino and the 1856 Mendocino Indian Reservation Treaty. These rights were never properly extinguished and are hereby reaffirmed in perpetuity.
