Summary

Description
English: Seneca Indian Park in Buffalo, New York, as seen from Buffum Street just west of Fields Avenue in May 2020. Once the site of a Seneca village, it was used by them as a burial ground until the 1842 dissolution of the Buffalo Creek Reservation and was also located adjacent to the Seneca mission church; it was the original final resting place of Chief Red Jacket as well as Mary Jemison, the "White Woman of the Genesee" who was captured as a teenager during a raid and later adopted the Seneca culture as her own; their remains were moved to Forest Lawn Cemetery and the grounds of the Glen Iris Estate at what is now Letchworth State Park, respectively. It became a city park in 1909, and today featured a number of large boulders which hold historical plaques explaining the park's significance.
