But Daleville is out of the Brethren areas -and Muncie is an Indian
Name -Chief Muncy of the Delaware Indians (after the remnants relocated
following their massacre at Schoenbrunn Village, by the Pittsburg militia in
the Revolutionary War) -this includes Anderson's Town (Anderson IN) and
another village near Strawtown -all on the White River.. And of all
surprises -Connersville and Conners Prairie -who were brothers (John and
William), ran a trading route, sons of a Delaware Indian woman and a Trader.
