Namasket (or Nemasket) Wampanoag Band - The Namasket (or Nemasket) Wampanoag Band was organized in 2000. It holds meetings in the Wattupa Reservation State Park in Fall River, Massachusetts. The band is led by council chair Albert Henry Corliss and is not a federally recognized tribe. The Namasket Band resided in villages around the Taunton River near modern-day Middleborough, Massachusetts and whose ancestors included Squanto of the Patuxet tribe. Today, remaining Namasket lines are most closely related to the current day Pocasset Band of Fall River. There is no website for this tribe.
